Petra Ecclestone's Children Helped Her Through Divorce

Petra Ecclestone has paid credit to her children who she said helped her cope with her highly public divorce from James Stunt in 2017.

The fashion designer, who is the daughter of Formula 1 tycoon Bernie Ecclestone, was granted a quick divorce from her billionaire husband after a five minute hearing last year.


The pair have a five-year-old daughter and three-year-old twin boys.

She told HELLO! Magazine: "I think it was the kids that made me cope. I didn't have the option of laying in bed, being depressed and feeling sorry for myself.

"I had to wake up for them. They kind of pushed me through it."

The divorce came after James signed a prenuptial agreement worth £16 million, which came six years after they tied the knot.
