Alice Dellal, whose grandfather ‘Black Jack’ Dellal once blew £1.7million in a Monte Carlo casino in a single night in 2006, is placing a bet on motherhood.
The model and photographer, 36, has revealed that she’s expecting her first child.
Alice Dellal who is the younger sister of shoe designer Charlotte Olympia Dellal, shared online a photograph of her cradling her bump in a leopard-print dress.
Alice Dellal made waves in 2008 when she replaced Kate Moss, who is 14 years her senior, as the face of luxe lingerie label Agent Provocateur.
She later enjoyed a blossoming friendship with Moss’s ex-husband, the rock musician Jamie Hince, 55.
Alice Dellal is currently dating Charlie Birch.
Birch appears to be enjoying life in the capital. ‘A lot more is happening in London, I guess,’ he told The Daily Mail’s Richard Eden earlier this year.
‘There are loads of events happening. It seems like there’s someone’s birthday every weekend.’
Sharing a photo of herself and Charlie to her Instagram Story in February of this year, the couple could be seen as they went surfing.
Alice wrapped up in a grey sweater while the skateboarder posed in the background while clutching his surfboard.
‘Happy birthday to my hero,’ she captioned the update.
Alice is a well-known face in the fashion world, who models for Chanel, Agent Provocateur and Marc Jacobs.
As the granddaughter of ‘Black’ Jack Dellal, the Brazilian property tycoon, Alice stands to inherit a fortune of £800 million.
Despite this, Alice has always been hardworking and famed photographer Mario Testino once called her his ‘muse.’
The well-connected socialite is the sister of shoe designer Charlotte Olympia, and art curator Alex, who runs a gallery in London’s east end.
Alice has always danced to her own tune and in the recent snap, she flashed several hand tattoos.
One of them, ‘CALL MUM’ looked like it had possibly be done with a biro, but Alice had it tattooed back in 2017, to remind her to keep in touch with mother Andrea.
She has a shark on her palm, a skeleton on her upper arm, triangles up one of her fingers and the initials DC on another.
