Ecclestone met Fabiana through the World Motor Sport Council. She regularly attended the group's meetings. They knew each other for a few years professionally before a mutual friend invited Fabiana on a cruise around Croatia with Ecclestone in 2009. The baby is Fabiana's first child.

Eccelstone is the former CEO of Formula 1 Group who owns 5.3% of Formula One Racing. He began his career with Formula One as a driver, but this did not last long. After driving in a few races, a serious collision caused him to give up his aspirations as a driver. But Ecclestone was far from finished with the world of Formula One racing, and he went on to manage various drivers and teams. From there, he eventually acquired more and more Formula One assets, becoming the president and CEO, a position which he held until he was removed from his position as chief in January 2017, following its takeover by Liberty Media in 2016. He's got a net worth of $3.1 billion.
