High-class Highlander­s

-

WHO? Sisters Idina (right), 25, and Alexandra (left), 20, Moncreiffe are Scottish aristocrat­s with a lineage going back 800 years. And though they look every inch a part of the Notting Hill set, they speak with a defiantly Scottish burr. Eschewing a nine- to- five, they model, paint and volunteer — joining their family on annual pilgrimage­s to Lourdes, where they manage to wash the feet of the sick while looking glamorous.

SCHOOL: Ampleforth, the Catholic monastic school reserved mostly for boys in Yorkshire, where fees are £34,000 a year.

PARENTS: Peregrine Moncreiffe of the Scots dynasty known as ‘ that Ilk’, and his artist wife Miranda Fox-Pitt.

ANCESTRAL HOME: Homes in Scotland and Jersey. ANCESTORS: Their father is chief of Clan Moncreiffe, and the younger brother of the 24th Earl of Erroll. MONEY: Unknown, though Peregrine Moncreiffe is director of companies with a net value of £400 million. BOYFRIENDS: None officially. MOST LIKELY TO SAY: ‘Just off to India to open an orphanage.’
