In what sounds a whole lot like a challenge to the paparazzi, Carla Bruni has announced that she will not allow the media to get its hands on the child she is expecting next month with Nicolas Sarkozy. "You don't have a child for the gallery," said Bruni in a TV interview, reports Reuters. "I understand the media interest (but) for children it's not possible. I will do everything to protect this infant and I'll be absolutely rigorous. I will never show photos of this child, I will never expose this child."
The Telegraph notes that Bruni said she made a "serious mistake" on a 2008 trip to an archaeological site in Jordan with Sarkozy, in which her 10-year-old son was thrust into the media spotlight. (More Carla Bruni stories.)
