Claudia Schiffer (born August 25, 1970 in Rheinberg, North
Rhine-Westphalia) is a German model who reached supermodel status
during the 1990s.
Schiffer began modelling in 1987, after being spotted in a nightclub
in D?sseldorf. Weeks later she appeared in Elle magazine. Within a
short time she modelled for Chanel. In the early 1990s she starred in
Guess? jeans ads in North America. She has appeared in around ten
motion pictures.
Schiffer was long engaged to, but never married, the magician David
Copperfield. On May 25, 2002 she married film producer Matthew de Vere
Drummond, n? Matthew Vaughn, son of George Albert Harley Drummond
(also known as George de Vere Drummond).
It was widely reported at the time of Claudia Schiffer's marriage that
one day she could become the Countess of Oxford because her
father-in-law was in line of succession to the Earldom of Oxford and
Mortimer. She is disqualified on two counts: Matthew's illegitimacy
would bar him from any succession and George Harley Drummond is not in
line for succession as he is not descended from the male line.
Claudia and Matthew have two children: a son, Caspar Matthew De Vere
Drummond, born in London on January 30, 2003 and a daughter,
Clementine, born in London on November 11, 2004.
