Former supermodel, and France’s First Lady Carla Bruni is expecting twins with her French President hubby Nicolas Sarkozy, according to new reports today.

‘If you'll allow me, I'd rather not answer these questions about my family,’ she said, when asked whether she was pregnant.

‘I'd love to talk to you woman to woman about my family life, my personal dreams – and I'm really a very chatty person.

‘But on this subject, I'm going to keep quiet. Not through arrogance or because I like keeping secrets.

‘I am remaining tight-lipped about that to protect something'

‘She went on: 'I would really like to to talk about it, but then it would take over everything else. And besides, it also involves people, so I'm not answering.’
