Billionaire Bernie Ecclestone, 89, and wife Fabiana Flosi, 44, are expecting a baby. Ecclestone's fourth child will be born this summer, the former Formula One chief told the UK's PA Media news agency Friday. The new arrival will be the billionaire's first son, and his first child with Flosi, joining daughters Tamara, Petra and Deborah from Ecclestone's previous marriages. Ecclestone will turn 90 in October. 

The couple - who married in 2012 - also said they are currently in isolation at their home in Sao Paulo, Brazil, during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.Bernie is making sure to stay inside as much as possible, as his age puts him at higher risk of developing complications from the respiratory illness. The billionaire is remaining positive throughout the pandemic though, as he says keeping a sense of humour in trying times is important. The impending arrival means Bernie is just a few years shy of the record for being the world’s oldest father, which is reportedly held by Indian former wrestler and farmer Ramjit Raghav who fathered a child at the age of 96.
