F1 Tycoon Bernie Ecclestone, 81, secretly wedding with 46 years junior Fabiana Flosi, 35

London: F1 Tycoon Bernie Ecclestone has secretly married for the third time - to a woman 46 years his junior. The 81-year-old billionaire married Brazilian marketing director Fabiana Flosi, 35, at Le Lion, his £23million Swiss ski chalet in exclusive resort Gstaad.

The couple, who announced their engagement in April with Miss Flosi sporting a £100,000 ring, exchanged vows two weeks ago in the private ceremony that Ecclestone's own daughters failed to attend.

They began dating in 2009 despite a 46-year age gap, following the end of the racing magnate's 23-year marriage to Slavica.

Tamara said she had no plans to attend her father’s wedding out of loyalty to her mother, former Armani model Slavica.

Ecclestone met his new wife through the pair's work on the Brazilian Grand Prix where Miss Flosi is F1’s vice-president of marketing.

Ecclestone’s four-storey chalet has been in the family for more than 15 years.

Neighbours include Italian fashion designer Valentino and film director Roman Polanski.
