Margarita Louis-Dreyfus is the chairperson of a French global conglomerate, Louis Dreyfus Commodities. She owns the Olympique de Marseille football team.

Another feather in her cap is being pregnant with twins.

At 53!

She will be delivering in early April, but has decided to "take a brief break and return to work full time in late April," according to Yahoo.

Just 40 women over 50 years got children in Switzerland last year, so Margarita's pregnancy is unusual, according to the Telegraph.

While just nine of them had been pregnant at 53, it is not known whether any of them had twins.

Having been married to French businessman Robert Louis-Dreyfus in 1992, the ex-CEO of sports brand Adidas and advertising company Saatchi & Saatchi, Margarita got three sons, Eric and twins Kyril and Maurice.

In 2009, though, her husband, Robert, who is the cousin of Hollywood actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, got killed by leukemia.

After that Margarita has been having an affair with banker and BlackRock investment manager Philipp Hildebrand. It has been the avid spotlight in Swiss tabloids, yet it is unclear whether he has fathered her unborn child or not, explains the Daily Mail.

Born in the Soviet Union in 1962 and having migrated to Switzerland in the '80s, Louis-Dreyfus, née Margarita Bogdanova, became Swiss after her first marriage. However, the marriage broke up and she met Robert in 1988.

Robert discovered his illness in 2006 and named Jacques Veyrat as his business successor, yet his wife became chairwoman and Veyrat went away.

Margarita's net worth is thought to be $6.9 billion, according to Forbes.
