Rachida Dati is in a legal battle to try to force tycoon Dominique Desseigne to say he fathered her daughter Zohra, three.
Desseigne, 68, who is refusing to take a DNA test, insists he is one of many who had an "adventure" with Ms Dati, 47 -- which will further the philandering reputation of French politicians.
And his lawyers have claimed she was involved in up to eight relationships at the time.
It is claimed her boyfriends included a TV host, a Spanish PM, a Qatari politician and a brother of ex-French president Nicolas Sarkozy.
Those previously suspected of being Zohra's father include Mr Sarkozy himself.
Ms Dati, who has a reputation as a self-publicist, is said to have encouraged the speculation during interviews.
