Swiss billionaire Margarita Louis-Dreyfus has announced she
is pregnant with her second set of twins.
The 53-year-old chairwoman of French conglomerate Louis
Dreyfus Commodities and widow of French businessman Robert Louis-Dreyfus is
expecting twin girls in early April. Margarita and Robert, who married in 1992
had three sons, Eric and twins Kyril and Maurice, before he died of leukemia in
2009.
The expectant mother is currently dating Swiss banker
Philipp Hildebrand, 52, the vice chairman of US investment manager BlackRock,
however she has not confirmed or not he is the father of her unborn children.
In a statement made via her company, Margarita confirmed
that she plans on continuing her duties as non-executive chairwoman until the
birth, before taking a brief maternity leave and returning to work full time in
late April.
The Russian-born businesswoman gained Swiss nationality
through her first marriage before she met Robert in 1988 on a flight to
London from Zurich.
Margarita, who was working as a circuit-board-equipment
seller when they wed, became a full time wife and mother. However, before his
death, Robert set up a family trust called Akira BV to hold his majority stake
in the privately held, Amsterdam-based company, naming Margarita the family
trustee.
