Lebanese model, former TV presenter and mum of two daughters, Loujain Adada was married to late Saudi billionaire businessman Walid Juffali, according to Ccercle. The couple famously wed in a lavish Venice ceremony in 2012, only four years before Juffali’s death due to cancer. Juffali was 35 years older than his model wife, per British media.

Reports indicate that the 2012 nuptials were rather controversial, having sparked a US$4.5 billion (£4 billion) divorce battle between Juffali and his former wife Christina Estrada, an American model and ex-girlfriend of Prince Andrew.

Netflix has described Adada as outspoken, assertive and not shy to speak her mind.

2. DJ Bliss, 41
