Yep, she probably doesn't even look at it.

I wondered that too, Susan.
I think some do, but don't know about this particular one.

It seems so wrong when some have so much while others still have so little.

Bet the 24hr security guards are in for a rollicking!

Re: £50m-worth of jewellery?

Honestly, l don’t mind people being rich. I am happy for them.
....but that sort of money on such a few items of jewellery, is extortionate and unacceptable.

With all their money, why wasn’t their house and valuables better protected?

Should, l be surprised? No! This is the woman who in her reality programme didn’t know what toast was?
Thick or what?

This is why insurance premiums keep going up.

Well she has nothing to do with f1, apart from some commentating, her father, Bernie is a very shrewd, businessman, he was already a billionaire when he sold his f1 rights to liberty media, I suspect that Bernie has used his daughter as a means to get around taxes, just a suspicion of mine...

Re: £50m-worth of jewellery?

Sometimes jewelry especially precious metal are a very good investment and are under the taxman's radar.
And if the economy goes tits up you get to keep your wealth.
You can also gift jewelry with no penalty.

And have you seen how much interest the banks are paying these days? you can make twenty times that with precious metals and gemstones.

It said she was an heiress and I looked up her father. He seems to be worth 4bn with an original business in used cars, then F1. I read that he sold his rights to F1 years ago but I just didn't realise that F1 was so incredibly lucrative. I think this is higher than Trump's fortune.
