editHe is married the former Brazilian fashion model Andrea (née de Magalhaes Viera) Dellal. The couple married in the late 1970s when Andrea was at the pinnacle of her career modeling for the likes of Thierry Mugler and Yves Saint Laurent. Four children later, when the third was seven years old,[3] they divorced, but reconciled after only a few years. During the time apart, Guy Dellal was rumored to be an escort of Jerry Hall.[2],[1] Now the couple are grandparents since their eldest child, Charlotte Olympia Dellal, a shoe designer,[4] gave birth to a son in 2008.
Alice Dellal, a goddaughter of Sir Mario Testino,[3] replaced Kate Moss as the face of Agent Provocateur. Alexander Dellal owns the contemporary art gallery at 20 Hoxton Square, London and, since 2007, has been the boyfriend of Charlotte Casiraghi, the daughter of Princess Caroline of Monaco.
