He\u2019s a lot more shy than people think.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nSpeaking about her unconventional upbringing, she added: \u201cMy grandfather used to wear my grandmother\u2019s clothes, and she used to wear his.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cMost of my family are slightly mad and crazy or weird. My whole family are all crazy creatives. No one is academic. Everyone is wild and free-spirited.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nElla rose to prominence as a model aged 18, appearing in a Burberry campaign photographed by Mario Testino, alongside Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Cara Delevingne and Jourdan Dunn. <\/p>\n<p>\nShe later joined the Kate Moss Agency and went on to work with fashion houses including Prada, Calvin Klein, Fendi and Valentino.<\/p>\n<p>\nDiscussing her relationship with Kate, who is also her godmother, Ella said: \u201cI feel very lucky to have someone who\u2019s been through it all and can guide me.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cI can go and talk to her about things and she completely understands \u2013 I don\u2019t really need to explain anything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/keith-richards-becomes-great-grandfather-first-time-age-82-1445256.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1 June 2026 Keith Richards has become a great-grandfather for the first time.
