The stunning public European debt crisis is a world-wide scandal but these days Euro readers are more intrigued by the sensational details of a paternity suit involving the apparently busy love life of the woman who was the first female finance minister of France. The svelte Eurocrat is 47-year-old Rachida Dati. The target of the action alleges that Dati was seeing up to eight boyfriends at around the time she had a love child three years ago. Multi-millionaire businessman Dominique Desseigne, 68, is refusing to take a DNA test after being accused of being the girl’s dad. Ms Dati has gone to court to try and get him to admit that he fathered Zohra, now three, during a passionate encounter in 2008. The alleged boyfriends included a TV host, a minister, a chief executive officer, a Spanish prime minister, a brother of Nicolas Sarkozy, a Qatari Attorney General and the heir to a luxury goods empire, says an article in Le Monde.
