HEATHER Bird has had an unusual set up – she’s estranged from her tycoon husband but still lives with him and his girlfriend.

Here's all you need to know about the glamorous mum famed for her lavish lifestyle and London parties.

Who is Heather Bird?

Heather Bird grew up in a modest Mormon family in Salt Lake City.

In her early twenties, she was sent on a religious mission to the South of France.

While she didn't drink alcohol or even coffee, her eyes were opened to the extraordinary lifestyle enjoyed by the super-rich.

Later she joined that elite world after she became the wife of property mogul Robert Tchenguiz.

The 48-year-old is also known as a socialite who has thrown exotic parties in the ballroom of the £20m London townhouse, which is near the Royal Albert Hall.

The couple married in 2005, but things started to unravel just three years later.

She now runs an anti-ageing clinic in Knightsbridge.

How come she still lives with her husband?

The couple reportedly stayed close for the sake of their kids.

In an interview in February she told how she cried herself to sleep at night because she was "forced" to live with her ex and his new lover, stunning 27-year-old Julia Dybowska.

She lives in the lower floors of their London town house while her former partner lives upstairs, reports the Times.
