In a 2011 issue of his school magazine he was called a “delight to watch” and was “without doubt the player of the season” for his football skills.

Milo was also a keen cricket player and came runner up in the Funaki prize, a long-running award for artistic endeavour.

He went on to study at London’s School of Oriental and African Studies which he graduated from in 2014.

Following this he took up a five-month internship at men’s magazine Esquire Middle East, based in Dubai.

WHO IS STEPHANIE?

Boris’ family life has caused him some controversy over the years.

His four children have a younger half-sister, Stephanie, who was born in 2009 – the product of an affair with art advisory Helen Macintyre.

Stephanie is the second youngest of Johnson’s children.

At first, he denied paternity and wasn’t named on the birth certificate.

However, his relations were revealed after a 2013 court battle in which he sought an injunction to prevent her existence being reported.

It is not believed her elder half-siblings or her father have anything to do with her.
