Soros used to seat girlfriend who’s suing him at the children’s table
George Soros — the 81-year-old billionaire being sued by his 28-year-old Brazilian former girlfriend — used to seat her at the children’s table at his Sunday brunches in Southampton, N.Y.
“He always had one table for the men, one for the women, and one for the kids,” said a friend of the Hungarian investing guru. “The Brazilian was always seated at the kids’ table, and she didn’t look too happy.”
Former Brazilian soap star Adriana Ferreyr sued Soros this week, claiming he reneged on a promise to give her an apartment on East 85th Street, and then assaulted her after he informed her he had given the flat to another woman, his frequent traveling companion Tamiko Bolton.
A guest at one of Soros’ brunches recalled that Ferreyr was wearing an expensive, blinged-out wristwatch. “It didn’t really go with her $15 string bikini,” sniped our source. Ferreyr didn’t like it when Soros talked to other women. “Her nickname could be ‘Determined,’” said the source.
Soros, who is worth $14.5 billion, allegedly told one friend, “What I do in the nighttime is my own business, and nobody else’s business. She [Ferreyr] is only for nighttime.”
At his 80th birthday party a year ago, Soros mingled with more age-appropriate women, including Washington Post heiress Lally Weymouth, billionaire Wilbur Ross’ wife Hilary Geary, and madcap Chicago socialite Sugar Rautboard.
“Being Hungarian, George loves women. He has this incredible European charm,” said one former flame.
But the complications of his love life seemed to make him start worrying about security last year, after Ferreyr rented an apartment in the same East 85th Street building where Bolton was ensconced.
“Suddenly you couldn’t get through to him on the phone. Security would answer and call you back,” our source said. “And everybody had a gun. I think even the waiters were packing.”
Soros’ spokesman has dismissed Ferreyr’s lawsuit as “a delusional work of fiction” and “an attempt to extort money.”
