THIS IS the picture no one thought possible - Russian billionaire Vladimir Doronin, his supermodel girlfriend Naomi Campbell PLUS his wife and daughter posing TOGETHER and smiling for the camera.
Just months ago we reported that Vlad's missus and childhood sweetheart Ekaterina got angry at the very mention of Naomi's name after her hubby fell for the model at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival.
Last March we revealed how London-based Ekaterina told pals: "This is just a ridiculous affair. Naomi's deluding herself if she thinks she can take my husband."
But other friends insist Mr and Mrs Vlad had been drifting apart and hadn't lived together properly for 10 years. And last month Naomi moved into the property magnate's Moscow penthouse.
When Vlad's in London he regularly visits Ekaterina and 13-year-old daughter Katia - and recently introduced Naomi.
That led to her inviting the girls to her Fashion for Relief fundraiser for Haiti earthquake victims on Thursday - scene of our cosy family photo.
Vlad, 47, explained: "I've maintained a good relationship with my wife and Katia, and was very pleased they were able to join me in supporting Naomi."
Naomi, 39, added: "It was a really special night and lovely to be together, we had a great time."

I am happy for her - has everyone noticed how she has quietened down a lot this man is obviously doing her a lot of good - and with all the bad press she has had over the years, it has made me smile that she does have a lovely side to her. I imagine some of the stuff publicised about this women man have been slightly exaggerated if designers and their staff destested her so much why has she made so many millions working as such a fantastic supermodel. I think she is amazing - go Naomi - you have broken down some hefty barriers for other black models including myself - I am still and always will be proud of you! x

Class act! Everyone comes out of this well. If only all breakups could be so civilised. And it takes the stress off the daughter so she can be comfortable and not have to take sides between her parents.

The fella maybe a billionaire and of course Naomi moves in these circles but to paraphrase 'Mrs Merton' to assume Naomi is a gold digger is foolish. You stupidly forget she has been modeling and at top of her game for 20 years plus and is a multi-millionaire in her own right.

With Naomi Campbell's track record with men Vlad would do well to maintain relationships with his wife.
To paraphrase Mrs Merton's ( alias Caroline Ahern ) comments to Paul Daniels....
" So, Naomi , what attracted you to billionaire Vladimir Doronin in the first place! "

That is what I call a true player! Your wife accepting your girlfriend... something Tiger and John Terry ought to learn.
