Who Are Caroline Stanbury's Kids? Meet Yasmine, Zack, and Aaron
Caroline shares three children with her ex-husband Cem Habib and has been talking about expanding her family with husband Sergio Carrallo.
When we first met Caroline Stanbury and her children in 2014 on Ladies of London, she was a high society Brit raising her young family alongside husband Cem Habib. These days, those babies are much more grown up — and a lot more has changed for the family.
Following Caroline and Cem's family move to Dubai in 2016 (you can see them preparing for the big change in scenery on Ladies of London Season 3), Caroline and Cem announced they'd called their 17-year relationship quits.
"Cem and I came to the conclusion some time ago that we will continue our relationship not as husband and wife but as good friends and parents to our wonderful 3 children we love very much," Caroline wrote in a December 2019 Instagram post announcing the divorce. "We wish each other all the happiness and look forward to maintaining our strong family unit."
Soon after, she met and married Sergio Carrallo (you can be sure that Caroline and Sergio's December 2021 wedding was all the talk in London and Dubai). Around the same time, cameras picked up for The Real Housewives of Dubai ... and we learned that Caroline and Sergio are also talking about having a baby of their own.
Despite all the change, one thing remains the same: the immense love Caroline has for her family. Ahead, discover everything you need to know about Caroline's darlings, Yasmine, Zack, and Aaron — plus the baby she's been discussing with Sergio.
Caroline's daughter Yasmine Habib
Caroline's eldest is the child we know best — thanks in part to Yasmine's appearances on RHODubai. When she turned 18 in March 2024, Caroline shared a sweet Instagram post highlighting her love for her only daughter, who was born in 2006.
"I have many mixed emotions the main being where did the years go," she wrote. "And how is she 18 … and now knowing she is leaving home in a matter of months and how strange and empty the house will be. [Yasmine,] thank you for making me a mummy and teaching me so many things ! And I can’t wait to see what’s to come for you … I love you."
A fashionista like her mom (her 18th birthday cake paid homage to a number of designer brands), Yasmine is also a world traveler — her Instagram account has highlights featuring the UK, Middle East, Europe, and Asia.
Yasmine Habib's College Journey
In fall 2024, Yasmine will venture off to college in London. "Yasmine got offers from five universities she's applied to," Caroline shared during a June 2024 interview with The Daily Dish. "She's doing her A levels currently and then she's going to go to London to university, but she's extremely excited. So, I will be taking her in September and she's moving out."
During Season 2 of RHODubai, we saw a glimpse at the teen's collegiate decision process. Yasmine originally wanted to head to college in the United States, and went on a weeklong trip to check out American universities.
"Yasmine is going to go to college next year, so she's going to America to a college tour. But she's decided that she only wants me and my ex-husband Cem to go," Caroline shared in Season 2, Episode 2. Nevertheless, the businesswoman ended up not being able to go on the trip; Yasmine visited America with only her father by her side.
What does Yasmine Habib think about Sergio Carrallo and Caroline Stanbury's relationship?
Yasmine's relationship with her stepdad is complicated. During Season 1, Episode 3 of RHODubai, Caroline asked the teen how she'd feel about having a little sibling. She was not pleased — especially regarding the subject of her potential sibling's father.
“[Sergio] already acts like a man child. We don’t need an actual child as well,” Yasmine told her mom, half-jokingly. “He needs a bit of a reality check on the kid front. You forget you have three most of the time.”
In Season 2, Yasmine shared more and more of her feelings. During a party featured in Season 2, Episode 3, Yasmine revealed what she thinks is the "worst" thing about Sergio: he's a bit "clingy."
"I mean this in the nicest way possible, but you follow my mom around like a lost puppy," she told Sergio.
Yasmine broke down while discussing Sergio and her mom's relationship in Episode 6. Caroline had previously asked her if she could work on her relationship with him, to which she replied that she has tried.
"If anyone else spoke to me the way he speaks to me in our arguments, the way you'd react would be so different," Yasmine shared. "And then it always ends up with you yelling at me and nothing else, which I don't think is fair, because it takes two to have an argument. And then I'm the one who gets yelled at because I'm some sort of malicious thing. I'm not. That's not fair."
Caroline's sons Zack and Aaron Habib
While we remember them running around on Ladies of London, we don't know much about twins Zack and Aaron these days — the boys are off social media and can rarely be spotted on RHODubai. However, we can assume they live very nice lives with Dubai as their playground and a very cool, sporty stepdad (Sergio is a former professional soccer player).
In April 2024, the twins turned 14 years old. According to an Instagram post by Caroline, they've almost outgrown her in height.
Is Caroline Stanbury having a baby with husband Sergio Carrallo?
Caroline and Sergio's journey to becoming parents together has been a regular subject on RHODubai since the series launched — and since the couple married in 2021.
"Sergio doesn't have any children. He's 29 and I just turned 48. From the moment we got involved, I realized that he'd probably want his own family," Caroline wrote in an essay for TODAY in June 2024. "Everyone kept asking if we were having a baby after our wedding two years ago. They're rooting for a Sergio-and-Caroline baby. I think they just want to see me waddling around or watch how first-time dad Sergio copes with sleepless nights. But it’s a lot of pressure to have the whole world know our reproductive issues."
Together, the couple have done two rounds of IVF and have ended up with one viable embryo. They're now looking at surrogates to carry the pregnancy. “Baby boy [is] on ice and is perfect," Caroline told Us Weekly in November 2023 while attending BravoCon in Las Vegas. “And actually surrogacy just became legal in the [United Arab Emirates] … You never know.”
Seasons 1 and 2 of RHODubai have featured the couple’s conversations and doctor visits exploring the potential of expanding their family.
"The baby will come at the right time, and I want to actually dedicate time to the baby... I want to be a father,” Sergio explained in Season 2, Episode 5. “I believe the baby that we will have will be a fun baby.” In the same episode, the pair spoke to a fertility doctor, who said they have a "beautiful embryo." "I love my baby,' Sergio said in a confessional after seeing a photo. "I want to have this baby."
In the RHODubai Season 2 midseason trailer, a palm reader seemingly tells Caroline that she will have another baby — more specifically, a boy. Watch the moment, below.
