Jan. 15 2010, Published 10:00 a.m. ET
German supermodel Claudia Schiffer is expecting her third child with her British director husband Matthew Vaughn, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
The striking blonde, 39, is five-and-a-half months pregnant and will give birth in May. And she spoke of her joy as she said: “We are delighted with the news and can't wait to add to our family.”
The German star is one of the world’s most successful models, having appeared on more than 500 magazine covers.
Financial bible Forbes Magazine estimated her net worth at $60 million.
She already has two children, Caspar, aged six, and five-year-old Clementine. The famous catwalker married Vaughan, 38, in May 2002 following a romance the model called ‘love at first sight’ and the family live in West London.
She has previously talked about how motherhood changed her workaholic life, revealing: “I used to work every single day and travel round the world - I worked weekends, I never took one second off.
“When I met my husband I said, ‘You know what, this is important. I'm not going to work weekends any more’ - and when I had kids, I became even more careful.
“Modeling work is fine because you can do one day here, two days there, you're never long gone.”
Schiffer still has lucrative multi million dollar deals with L'Oreal and a contract with Ebel watches and has been the face of Chanel. But the model made it clear that she wanted more babies after admitting the couple made the decision to have children soon after meeting, as she said: “I have the right man, I'm going to have kids right away, let's not waste time.”
