Anne Dewavrin is a French socialite who came to fame after marrying the World's second-richest person, Bernard Arnault. Her children, Antoine and Delphine, have also made their mark as businesspeople and hold respectable positions in Christian Dior.

Is Anne involved in some business too? What is she doing? People are also curious regarding Arnault's ex-wife's pursuits. As Dewavrin has kept a low profile following her divorce from the French billionaire, she has left people eager to uncover her enigmatic life. 

Who Is Anne Dewavrin Husband Now? 

Following her separation from French Billionaire Bernard Arnault, Anne has found solace in the arms of another personality. Anne Dewavrin is now married to Patrice de Maistre, a former wealth manager of Liliane Bettencourt.

Anne tied the knot with Patrice in September 2001 in France. The married pair enjoyed their blissful marital life until Maistre ran into legal troubles.

Anne Dewavrin Husband's Legal Case 

As aforementioned, Patrice de Maistre worked as the wealth manager of Liliane Bettencourt, the L'Oreal heiress. He found himself embroiled in the notorious Bettencourt affair. 

Patrice faced serious charges in 2011 after being accused of taking advantage of Liliane's vulnerability. He was charged with fraud and money laundering. 

Later in 2015, Anne Dewavrin's husband was found guilty. He was sentenced to a 30-month sentence, a €250,000 fine.  Since then, his wife, Dewavrin, has chosen a more private life.
