EMILY PRESCOTT: Was it the big age difference? Model Poppy Delevingne separates from toyboy Prince Tino
Acid was named a beloved ‘It couple’ by Tatler, aristos’ style magazine, after I first revealed their relationship.
But now, I’m afraid to say, socialite Poppy Delevingne and Prince Constantijn Alexios of Greece and Denmark are simply not ‘It’ anymore.
Just over a year after I first reported on their romance, I can now reveal that the pair have split, although a source close to them says it’s completely amicable, adding: ‘They’re just in different phases of their lives. There’s no animosity.’
There is a twelve-year age difference between 37-year-old Poppy and her blue-blooded toyboy, affectionately known to his friends as Tino. But that didn’t seem to matter as they threw themselves into their relationship, going on each other’s glamorous family vacations and working on glitzy projects together.
But now 25-year-old Tino – godson of the Prince of Wales – has moved to Los Angeles to attend film school, which may have had an impact on their relationship. And ironically, Poppy – supermodel Cara’s older sister – may have helped him get there. She had been his muse for an artistic promotional film he made this summer for the Venezuelan fashion designer Carolina Herrera.
Poppy found romance with Tino – whose grandfather, the late Constantine II, was the last king of Greece – after splitting from her financier husband James Cook last year
The pair enjoyed their time together with Poppy and even joined Tino and other members of the defunct Greek royal family in Ibiza this summer
Poppy found romance with Tino – whose grandfather, the late Constantine II, was the last king of Greece – after splitting from her financier husband James Cook last year. The pair enjoyed their time together with Poppy and even joined Tino and other members of the defunct Greek royal family in Ibiza this summer. Poppy also spent time with Tino’s sister Princess Olympia in the Ralph Lauren suite at Wimbledon in July.
Poppy remains on good terms with James, 44, who she married in a lavish Knightsbridge ceremony in 2014. He is now happily in love with singer-songwriter Emma Deigman, 35, who performs under the name Edei.
Poppy and Tino declined to comment last night.
In love Hayley
Hollywood star Hayley Atwell has made a strange confession about her love life: she’s attracted to people who make her feel sick.
The 41-year-old Mission: Impossible actress, who is engaged to actor Ned Wolfgang Kelly, told author Jessie Burton about the property for a video for the National Gallery.
“I have this weird feeling of being a little attracted to people who also make me throw up a little bit because I know they’re untrustworthy,” she said.
Hayley, left, was previously linked to her co-star Tom Cruise – but she couldn’t allude to one of the nicest men in Hollywood, could she?
