They married after a whirlwind romance and now it seems Carla Sarkozy and her husband, French president Nicolas Sarkozy, wouldn't be averse to starting a family in record time, too. When asked on the eve of the internet release of her new album if she's expecting a baby, the First Lady, 40, replied ruefully: "No, unfortunately not".
"I wonder if my stomach's got bigger, because everyone is asking me the same question," continued the former model, who's already mum to seven-year-old Aurélien - her son from a previous relationship. Carla made it clear, however, that she hasn't ruled out having another child. "I'm not pregnant and I regret it because I love it when I am. Will it happen? It's difficult for me to say. It's much more difficult at 40 than it is at 25."
The Italy-born beauty, whose new album Comme Si De Rien N'était - As If Nothing Happened - hits stores this weekend after having already been launched on a listen-only basis on the internet, is aware her role as head of state's consort may affect her fans perceptions.
"If people don't listen because I married the president of the Republic, I understand. If they do listen because I married the president of the Republic, I will be delighted," she revealed.
