BRUNI WEDS FRENCH LEADER

Former supermodel CARLA BRUNI has reportedly wed French President NICOLAS SARKOZY in a super-secret ceremony in Paris. The news comes less than a week after the French leader confirmed reports he and Bruni, a former girlfriend of Mick Jagger and Eric Clapton, were engaged. Sarkozy and the Italian stunner reportedly became a couple late last year (07), just weeks after the French President divorced his wife Celia. Reports suggested the couple was planning to wed on 9 February (08), but, at a press conference last week (ends11Jan08), Sarkozy told the media, "There is a strong chance that you will learn about it (wedding) once it's already been done." Publicists for the French leader have refused to confirm or deny the wedding reports.
