Carla Bruni, a supermodel-turned-pop-star-turned-putative-First-Lady, is used to the limelight.

She was born in Turin in 1967. Her mother was a concert pianist and her father a composer and heir to the CEAT tyre fortune.

Her older sister is the Italian actress Valeria Bruni Tedeschi.

In the early 1970s, when Red-Brigade militants threatened to kidnap Italy's rich and famous, the family relocated to France.
