On March 23, the chic, frosty Cécilia Sarkozy married Richard Attias, who reportedly has been her boyfriend for ages now, at, of all places, the Rainbow Room. She’d left Attias to help her husband, Nicolas Sarkozy, win the French presidency, but that rapprochement didn’t last long. Her New York wedding was a happily cheesy three-day affair, beginning with a party at Attias’s house in Greenwich, Connecticut, followed by a group outing to Mamma Mia! and then to the Top of the Rock. Meanwhile, Nicolas and Carla Bruni hid out in Marrakech, then upstaged Cécilia with their convivial state visit to England.
