Who is Kirsty Bertarelli and what’s her net worth? Former Miss UK and Britain’s third richest woman

SHE'S one of Britain's richest people, and has written a number one hit for All Saints, but how much do you know about Kirsty Bertarelli?

Here's the lowdown on the former Miss UK, whose £9.66 billion fortune is more than JK Rowling and The Queen’s earnings combined.

She was crowned Miss UK in 1988, which saw her go on to compete at the Miss World pageant, where she finished as 2nd runner up.

Now living in Switzerland with their three children, the couple are ranked among some of the wealthiest people in the world, with husband Ernesto's family fortune worth over £9billion.

His granddad founded Serono, the pharmaceutical company which made the family's fortune.

When he took over from his granddad in 1996, Ernesto shifted the company focus towards biotech, growing revenues from $809 million (£615 million) in 1996 to $2.8 billion (£2.1 billion) in 2006.
