Will Vogue Help Fund Chloe Malle’s NYC Penthouse After Tapping the ‘Proud Nepo Baby’ as Its New Editor?

Candice Bergen's daughter, Chloe Malle, has been named the head of editorial content of Vogue U.S. after Anna Wintour decided to step down from her role as editor-in-chief.

In June, Wintour, 75, announced that she would be saying goodbye to her editor position but continue as the chief content officer for Vogue publisher Condé Nast.

Now, she has named her successor—but will Malle, 39, receive the same perks that Wintour did, such as a $1.6 million loan for a property?

"Fashion and media are both evolving at breakneck speed, and I am so thrilled—and awed—to be part of that. I also feel incredibly fortunate to still have Anna just down the hall as my mentor," Malle said in a press release obtained by NBC News on Sept. 2.

She recently opened up to The New York Times about her dream promotion.

"There is no question that I have 100% benefited from the privilege I grew up in. It’s delusional to say otherwise. I will say, though, that it has always made me work much harder. It has been a goal for a lot of my life to prove that I’m more than Candice Bergen’s daughter, or someone who grew up in Beverly Hills," she revealed.

Malle will still report to Wintour.

"When it came to hiring someone to edit American Vogue, letting me turn my attention more intensely to Vogue’s multifaceted growth across its global audiences and publications and events like the Met Gala and Vogue World. I knew I had one chance to get it right," Wintour said in the memo.

In a statement shared in June via Vogue, Wintour added, "Now, I find that my greatest pleasure is helping the next generation of impassioned editors storm the field with their own ideas, supported by a new, exciting view of what a major media company can be, and that is exactly the kind of person we need to now look for to be HOEC for U.S. Vogue."

One of the rumored perks of Wintour's position as editor-in-chief was that she received a lump sum loan to help her snap up her Greenwich Village, NY, townhouse.

It was reported that the publication gave Wintour a $1.8 million loan to help her pick up the abode. However, the details of the loan were never revealed, meaning it's unclear if or how Wintour paid back the money.

However, a similar practice may be unnecessary when it comes to Malle, who lives in her mother's former Central Park South condo with her husband, Graham McGrath Albert, and their two children, Louis Albert, 5, and Alice Malle Albert, 3.

Malle also holds the keys to a French country home near Cahors, which is where she and Albert tied the knot in 2015.

Bergen held several properties in the apartment building her daughter is now living in, but she has been offloading the majority of them, as recently as 2023.

Bergen and her late husband, Louis Malle, welcomed Chloe in 1985.

After Chloe's birth, Bergen was cast in "Murphy Brown" and the mother and daughter moved to California.

According to The New York Times, Louis often visited his wife and daughter after losing out on the Oscar for best foreign language film for his movie "Au Revoir Les Enfants."

The actress previously revealed Louis "didn't like living or working in Hollywood."

Ten years later, Louis died from complications related to lymphoma.

In 2015, Bergen told Dallas News that Chloe gets her "dynamism and intellect" from her father, and her "sense of humor" from her mom.

Five years after Louis' death, Bergen and Malle moved to NYC, where Malle attended Riverdale High School. She then went to Brown University and studied comparative literature and writing.

Malle then took a yearlong break in Ethiopia, where she worked at a medical practice as an assistant.

Upon moving back to NYC, Malle moved into Bergen's former home in Central Park South.

Instead of following her parents' Hollywood legacies, Malle decided to pursue her own career as a writer and editor.

Malle has written for The New York Times, Marie Claire, The Wall Street Journal, Architectural Digest, and Vogue.

In 2014, Malle told Into The Gloss that she had been a "big reader" since she was a child and although she debated going into public health, she then landed a position at the New York Observer.

The position turned into a full-time role and Malle then acted as the social media editor at Vogue.

“I was hesitant when I was interviewing, because fashion is not one of my main interests in life, and I wanted to be a writer more than an editor, but I was so seduced by the Vogue machine that I couldn’t resist,” she told the outlet.

In 2016, she transitioned to a contributing editor role and began leading Vogue.com in 2023.
