Personal life

[edit]

Stanbury married her first husband, Cem Habib,[63][64] a Turkish financier,[65] in Westminster, Greater London, on 21 May 2004, when she was 28 years old. The wedding reception was attended by 150 people. Her hen do was organised by the German actress Diane Kruger. Prior to their marriage, she converted to her husband's Jewish faith. Later, they had a second wedding ceremony at the Çırağan Palace in Istanbul. This wedding reception was attended by 800 people. The couple purchased their marital home in Chelsea, London.[66][67] Her legal name became Caroline Alice Habib.[68] They have three children together: a daughter, Yasmin, and twin sons, Zack and Aaron.[69] Her family lived on the Wentworth Estate in Surrey. On Boxing Day 2019, she announced that the couple had separated after 17 years of marriage.[70] Their divorce was finalised in January 2020.[71][72] The former couple have remained friends and co-parent their children together.[73]
