Little Supermodel On The Way

German supermodel Claudia Schiffer is pregnant with her first child, three months after marrying British film producer Matthew Vaughn in a lavish English country wedding, her London spokeswoman said Monday.

"We can confirm she is pregnant and has got through the first trimester," the spokeswoman told Reuters. "Matt and Claudia are absolutely over the moon and think it is great news."

The spokeswoman would not give any further details, or say exactly how far through the pregnancy Schiffer was.

The couple married on May 25 at an English country church near Coldham Hall, their Elizabethan manor house in the picturesque village of Lawshall in Suffolk, eastern England.

The lavish wedding was shrouded in secrecy -- the pictures reserved for a celebrity magazine -- but guests including German tennis player Boris Becker and designer Valentino said the model looked radiant.

Schiffer, who at 31 remains one of the world's most photographed women, is said to have fallen for Vaughn after he gave her a tortoise.

The supermodel has earned an estimated $55 million fortune from 15 years at the top of the modeling business while Vaughn is also a multi-millionaire, producing such hit films as "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels."

Her spokeswoman said the couple, who live in England, were currently in Los Angeles on business.
