Despite the numerous Page Six reports about their rumored divorce, New York socialite Tinsley Mortimer and her hedge-funder husband, Topper Mortimer, are not separated and are, in fact, working things out.

That’s according to Ms. Mortimer’s recent interview with Avenue magazine, titled “Tinsley Talks,” in which she tells the glossy:

“We have felt our way through some difficult times and transitions, but we love each other very much. We look forward to being together and having a wonderful, exciting, yet, at times, challenging life together, and want to start a family.”  

Are little Mortimers on the way!?

The issue has been out a while but somehow the Daily Transom missed this development in the Mortimer saga until, that is, Park Avenue Peerage pointed it out.

So there. All’s good in the Mortimer household. Apparently. And the reason you haven’t seen her out and about lately is because she’s been on a self-imposed social hiatus:

 

“It was nothing to do with me and Topper. I was just traveling a lot. Yesterday, I went to a Dior lunch, my first event in three months. Tonight I am back out and going to a few things with Topper and then we are headed to Palm Beach for a trunk show for my handbags at Saks. Next week I will be out all week for fashion week. I am glad I took a break because now I am actually excited to go out again. I really needed it.”

The interview took place in February.

Alas, Ms. Mortimer offered no comment on the alleged affairs that both or neither spouses–depending on whom you ask–were supposedly having.

And she does not elaborate on the nature of the “challenging life” that she and Mr. Mortimer have had together.

Instead, there are breathless descriptions of Ms. Mortimer “as New York’s version of Lady Diana,” a “real-life Gossip Girl,” and “New York’s most talked about, most photographed socialite, big enough at this point to be known by just her single distinctive moniker, Tinsley.”
