Astronomer Brian Cox buys the brightest star "Sherard has not married yet, as far as I know, but I think they are going to," says Lady Cowper-Coles, who divorced Britain's former special representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan in October. I got the impression they were going to get married sometime in the spring. Bridget, who remains Lady Cowper-Coles until she remarries, insists that she is happy for Sir Sherard, 57, and his lover, Jasmine Zerinini. Zerinini, who is on leave from the French foreign ministry for "personal reasons," gave birth to the diplomat's child, Louise, in January. "It seems natural," Lady Cowper-Coles says at Precious Afghanistan, a fundraising fashion show for Afghanaid. They have a baby, after all, who, I'm sure, is very sweet. She, however, has a more welcome union to help plan - that of her daughter, Minna. "The wedding will be in August at my new house in France and Sherard will be attending," she says. It's going to draw a line under the past. Because it's a wedding, it will be fine.
