TALK ABOUT THE CITY: Sophie Cannell goes to dinner with boyfriend Damien Hirst

With Christmas trips to the French Alps on the menu, what can a girl do with her couture ski clothes?

For Sophie Cannell, the 27-year-old girlfriend of Damien Hirst, the answer was simple: wear it to dinner in London.

The former ballerina, who has been in a relationship with the 56-year-old artist for three years, wore her £ 5,540 Chanel jumpsuit as the couple walked to their favorite restaurant, Scott’s in Mayfair.

Damien was pushing the boundaries of Scott’s “smart” dress code in a gray hoodie, purple jacket, blue joggers, sneakers and a shoulder bag with the slogan “Sex” on it.

The couple were joined by Sophie’s mother Angela, who at 60 is just four years older than Damien.

As they sat at a table outside, a guest said to me, “They were talking about their Christmas plans and how they would all like to spend it together.”

Is it time to make Sophie, Damien, an honest woman?

He might be rich enough to buy them whatever they want, but Jack Whitehall won’t be digging into his pockets for his four godchildren this Christmas.

The comedian instead confesses that they will get free proceeds from his new movie, the family comedy Clifford The Big Red Dog.

The 33-year-old said: “I have a lot of teddy bears and comics that come from America.” And I don’t think he was kidding …

The 78-year-old has gained a reputation for frugality over the years (ex-wife Jerry Hall called him ‘tight’), but my spy at Selfridges in London tells me the Rolling Stones frontman bought “Literally hundreds†of pre- for family and friends through its personal shopper service.

Her Christmas list would be long by anyone’s standards: the star has eight children, including her youngest Deveraux, five, plus five grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

It’s no wonder he’s feeling generous – the Stones were the highest-grossing live act of 2021, earning £ 87.2million from their No Filter US tour.
