Fawn James, the £650m queen of Soho, hits a club on her manor

Scraping together a little extra income to support one's party lifestyle can be a struggle for most hard-up students.

But when you are set to inherit the best part of £650million pounds, the drinks are bound to taste a little sweeter.

And the party appears to have started in earnest for Fawn James.

The 22-year-old granddaughter of porn supremo Paul Raymond, who passed away three weeks ago at 82, has wasted no time hitting London's nightclubs.

Porn heiress: 22-year-old Fawn enjoyed a night out at Embassy nightclub, near her grandfather's old stomping ground

The heiress was seen beaming from ear to ear as she arrived at Mayfair's celebrity haunt The Embassy last night, just a stone's throw away from neighbouring Soho, where her grandfather made his millions.

She was joined on her night out by her long-term boyfriend Nick.

Along with her 16-year-old sister India, she is likely to emerge as the main benefactor of the entrepreneur's millions.

And already her casual student attire of biker jacket and faded jeans favoured around campus have been replaced by a look more befitting of the woman dubbed 'Queen of Soho'.

Home: Fawn left the club with her handsome male companion

Dressed in an elegant, thigh-skimming dress and pointed black stilettos, the heiress was accompanied by her equally suave boyfriend.

"She looked fantastic," said one party-goer. "But wouldn't you if you'd just found out you were going to get that much money?

"She was very touchy-feely with the man she was with. He looks like the cat that got the cream he was smiling so much. He's one lucky guy!"

The drinks order was surprisingly tame considering money is now no object. The pair shunned the champagne in favour of vodka tonics before leaving at 2am in a black Mercedes.

"She is a regular visitor to the Embassy," said one party-goer. "The staff all know her and say she is the most polite and level-headed girl you could meet.

"It was a busy night and she was clearly enjoying dancing to the R and B music but you won't ever see her falling out of a night club drunk. She is a girl of zero vices."

Fawn is the daughter of Paul Raymond's daughter Debbie, who died 16 years ago after battling drink and drugs.

She is currently studying for a masters degree in social anthropology at Edinburgh University.

However, unlike her fellow graduates, fretting over her first career move might not be such a worry for the heiress. She has already been made a director of several of her late grandfather's companies.

She is also being tipped to take over Mr Raymond's vast property portfolio, which includes vast swathes of London's sex capital, Soho.
