Danish billionaire loses three children in attacks

BILLIONAIRE ASOS owner Anders Holch Povlsen has lost three of his four children in the Sri Lanka terror attacks.

Povlsen, Denmark’s richest man, is the second largest private landowner in Britain.

He has four children with wife Anne Storm – Alma, Astrid, Agnes and Alfred – but it is not known which have died.

Just days ago, Alma posted a picture of her three siblings by a pool.

Denmark’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that three Danes were killed in the bombings, with a spokesman for Mr Povlsen’s empire confirming that the victims were the billionaire’s children.

Two Australians are among the 290 people killed in a devastating Easter Sunday terror attack on eight churches and luxury hotels in Sri

Lanka.

At least 500 were injured when suicide bomb blasts ripped through buildings in Colombo – where tourists were eating breakfast and Christian worshippers had gathered for morning mass.

Sri Lanka’s foreign ministry has confirmed at least 37 foreign citizens are among the dead.

Other foreigners killed came from the UK, US, Turkey, China, Portugal and the Netherlands.
