‘Oh, are you kidding? I can’t wait,’ she went on. ‘I know better than to have suggested it to her, so I’ve never asked her, “Are you going to have a baby?” I’ve been very discreet, but I’m just thrilled for her.’

While Candice is thrilled to be becoming a grandmother, she admitted that her daughter is ‘kind of over being pregnant.’

But Malle – whose father is late French film director Louis Malle – has been ‘blessed’ with a healthy pregnancy.

Explaining the concept’s origin, Candice said: ‘Someone had given [Chloe] a Louis Vuitton tote. ‘I had just come in from the art store where I bought a bunch of art pens and she said, “Oh, you can decorate my bag.”

‘[Chloe] put it on Instagram and then her friends wanted me to decorate some of their bags and BergenBags sort of spontaneously gave birth that way,’ she went on.
