Annabelle Neilson, 45, former model, muse and close friend of the late Alexander McQueen lives in Chelsea and is worth an estimated £13 million.

Neilson is well established in high fashion circles - Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell are her friends - knows exactly how to work the party scene and is definitely more edgy than elegant.

"When I walk in a room, I think people think, 'Oh shit. It's Annabelle,'" she said in the series premiere.

She met her first husband, Nathaniel Rothschild, on a beach in India. They dated for six years, eloped in Las Vegas in 1995and split in 1998.

Hobbies? Kitesurfing with Sir Richard Branson.
