Swiss billionaire Margarita Louis-Dreyfus has
announced she is pregnant with her second set of
twins.
The 53-year-old chairwoman of French
conglomerate Louis Dreyfus Commodities and
widow of French businessman Robert Louis-
Dreyfus is expecting twin girls in early April.
Margarita and Robert, who married in 1992 had
three sons, Eric and twins Kyril and Maurice,
before he died of leukemia in 2009.
The expectant mother is currently dating Swiss
banker Philipp Hildebrand, 52, the vice chairman
of US investment manager BlackRock, however
she has not confirmed or not he is the father of
her unborn children.
In a statement made via her company, Margarita
confirmed that she plans on continuing her duties
as non-executive chairwoman until the birth,
before taking a brief maternity leave and returning
to work full time in late April.
The Russian-born businesswoman gained Swiss
nationality through her first marriage before she
met Robert in 1988 on a flight to London from
Zurich.
Margarita, who was working as a circuit-board-
equipment seller when they wed, became a full
time wife and mother. However, before his death,
Robert set up a family trust called Akira BV to
hold his majority stake in the privately held,
Amsterdam-based company, naming Margarita
the family trustee.
