Model, billionaire settle support fight

NEW YORK

Supermodel Linda Evangelista and a billion-aire French businessman have reached an agreement in their child- support fight.

Lawyers for Evangelista and Francois-Henri Pinault plan to give the details to a Manhattan judge today. The judge must approve the settlement.

It’s not yet clear whether the details will be made public.

Evangelista says she was spending $46,000 a month on armed bodyguards, a 24-hour-a-day nanny and other expenses for their 5-year-old son.

Pinault is CEO of the luxury-brands company PPR. He and Evangelista dated for about four months.
