The 43-year-old wife of the French president is said to be in the early weeks of pregnancy, meaning the child would be born before the election next spring when Mr Sarkozy is hoping to win a second term.
Neither the Elysee Palace nor senior ministers have denied the claims, explaining that they could not say anything because the matter was to do with the couple’s private life.
The baby would be Miss Bruni’s second child. She had a son, Aurelien, in 2001 with her then lover, the Paris philosopher Raphael Enthoven.
Her 56-year-old husband has two sons, Pierre, 26, and Jean, 24, from his first marriage to Marie-Dominique Culioli, and a third son, Louis, 14, with his second wife, Cecilia Ciganer-Albeniz.
