Her wealth eclipses J.K. Rowling and the Queen’s combined, but you might not have heard of Britain’s richest woman.
An astounding fortune of £11.5 billion makes 46-year-old Kirsty Bertarelli the wealthiest woman in the UK.
And she has the superyacht to prove it.
The vessel costs £250,000 just to refuel and was commissioned for the former beauty queen by her billionaire husband Ernesto, 51.
The couple, who have three children, enjoy an extremely luxurious lifestyle and spend months on their £100 million superyacht, a 314ft-long Vava II.
The couple were spotted relaxing on the top deck of their yacht taking in the Boston cityscape.
It took around 200 craftsmen to build the awe-inspiring vessel, which replaced their old 154ft boat.
Mrs Bertarelli, a former Miss UK, is part of the Churchill China dynasty, the world’s largest manufacturers of ceramics reports the Daily Mail.
After studying at a private boarding school in north Wales, she dabbled worked as a model and songwriter – even co-writing Black Coffee, which was a No.1 hit for All Saints.
In 1997 she met and fell in love with Ernesto Bertarelli, Switerland’s richest man thanks to his grandfather’s pharmaceutical company, Serono.
By 2000, she had been named Britain’s richest woman.

No, below the hard deck doesn’t count Maverick. You don’t get to wander around claiming to be the richest woman because you humped a billionaire.
It it’nt ‘bout J.K.
Well at least she hasn’t kicked any little tykes in wheel chairs over the side that we know of. ;-)
HUH? Did you read the article?
Meaning that jk would have surely raised a ruckus if she had.
She knew how to preserve, use and invest her personal assets!
Rich and has a nice fishing boat.
I noticed the boat
Actually, I have seen bigger yachts. Hers is “only” 97 meters in length. I saw a 100 meter yacht with a helicopter on board. I like a nice practical woman like Kristy who lives within her means.
I'm sending him this article. At 250K pounds a throw, just to gas it up, a new bass boat will look positively thrifty.
Does she like slightly older guys?
It’s called ‘money to burn!’
I guess using it is better than sticking it in a huge vault like Scrooge McDuck.
There was a boat?
No of course not. Why break tradition?
Guilty or not guilty?
It also had a guy in a kilt, bagpiping people aboard for a party.
Up in Bar Harbor, iirc.
