Carla Bruni congratulates Nicolas Sarkozy on their anniversary
Carla Bruni congratulated her husband, former French President Nicolas Sarkozy, on their anniversary. The 1990s supermodel posted joint photos on her Instagram*.
"17 years ago today, the day I met my beloved Nicolas.... Thank you, fate, for giving us this incredible love... Endless gratitude!" she wrote under the photo.
Sarkozy and Bruni's affair first came to light in 2007, when photos of the model with the recently divorced French president appeared on the website of the French weekly L'Express.
Let us recall that 56-year-old Carla Bruni and 69-year-old Nicolas Sarkozy have been married for 16 years. This is her first marriage, and his third. The couple had a daughter, Giulia, who is now 13 years old.
The couple has rarely appeared in public lately. They are currently under investigation: the French authorities are investigating the case of alleged Libyan financing of Nicolas Sarkozy's presidential campaign in 2007. Carla Bruni is considered to be involved, and in July it became known that a criminal case had been opened against Bruni: she is accused of falsifying testimony. At the moment, the model is under judicial supervision and can contact anyone involved in this case, except her husband.
