Jude’s little Iris is set to be a model millionaire
WITH Jude Law and Sadie Frost as her parents, Iris Law has spent her entire life among the elites of the showbusiness and fashion worlds.
And now, aged 19, she is tipped to join them in her own right – following in the footsteps of her famous godmother, Kate Moss.
After making her catwalk debut earlier this month, Iris has become one of the fashion world’s most sought-after young models, with insiders tipping her to soon become a millionaire.
Her first runway appearance was at Paris Fashion Week for Miu Miu, part of the fashion house Prada, alongside her friend Kaia Gerber, the daughter of supermodel Cindy Crawford. Days later, she launched her own collection of handbags, Iris By Iris, made by Mulberry.
‘She only finished her A-levels last summer, now Iris could be the biggest British fashion star since Kate Moss,’ one insider tells me. ‘She ticks all the boxes and is absolutely beautiful. With her family history and her well-known friends, she is quickly becoming a brand.’
Iris grew up with London’s infamous Primrose Hill set, which included her parents, Liam and Noel Gallagher, Meg Mathews and Pearl Lowe. She first made headlines aged just two when, in 2002, she found an ecstasy pill on the floor of members’ club Soho House during a children’s party – and put it in her mouth.
Today, Iris – who is described by friends as ‘very, very sensible’ – is part of the so-called Primrose Hill Set 2.0 whose members include Moss’s daughter Lila Grace, 17, and Liam Gallagher’s daughter Anais, 20.
Iris was a bridesmaid at her godmother’s wedding to rock star Jamie Hince in 2011 and appears to share her fondness for ‘bad boys’. She is dating Jyrrel Roberts, 22, a jewellery designer who is fond of posting photos online of marijuana plants.
Iris has appeared on the cover of Teen Vogue and has deals with Calvin Klein Jeans and Burberry, joking: ‘I’ve been wearing Burberry since I was really young. My first baby carrier was from Burberry.’
HATS off to Sting, who is digging out the garden at his Grade I-listed home knowing he could unearth an ancient corpse or two. The singer is putting in a pool house, garden room and gazebo at the sprawling Wiltshire estate.
But in 1995, builders working for the star discovered a woman’s skeleton – dated around 400AD – while digging out a lake at the property. His wife Trudie Styler pointed out the land lies close to Stonehenge and said: ‘The archaeologists told us the woman was about 18 years old, and the fact she was facing north, and face down, was an indication that she died in disgrace.’
Rather you than me, Sting. And if you find a body, dial 999…
