Tamara backs the wrong horse

MOST children have to make do with a donkey ride on the beach, but Formula 1 heiress Tamara Ecclestone can offer her threeyear- old daughter, Sophia, a ‘unicorn’.

Tamara, 33, shared this photograph of Sophia sitting on the white horse which had a horn attached to its head, its mane dyed pink and was decorated with a flower crown. She commented: ‘ We believe in unicorns.’

The picture, taken at what appeared to be a children’ s party, seemed to annoy some of her 277,000 Instagram followers.

‘ That’s awful,’ one said of the animal’s treatment, while another remarked: ‘Please don’t tell me that’s a real horse.’

Perhaps Bernie Ecclestone’s daughter should stick to cars.
