Chaplin to do the funny catwalk for Dolce & Gabbana

-

CHARLIE CHAPLIN’S dashing grandson Kevin is doing his part to keep the family name alive.

I can reveal that the 23- year- old from Geneva has been handpicked by designers Dolce & Gabbana to open their Men’s Fashion Week show in Milan today.

His catwalk debut might come as a surprise given that Kevin, son of Eugene Chaplin and Bernadette McCready, is a recent graduate of the EU Business School in Switzerlan­d, where he studied finance.

But his career prospects were transforme­d when his model and actress sister Kiera, 35, introduced him to the celebrated Italian duo last summer, where they immediatel­y snapped him up.

‘I’m so happy to have this opportunit­y to walk for Dolce & Gabbana,’ Kevin tells me.

‘And I’d like to think my grandfathe­r would be very proud of me.’ So long as he does a comedy wonky walk.
