Mystery at the Altar: George Soros Absent from Son's Wedding
EXCLUSIVE: Billionaire George Soros Skips Son's Lavish Wedding, But Still Finds Time for a Father's Day Photo Op
In a stunning display of opulence and politics, Alex Soros, son of billionaire Democrat donor George Soros, tied the knot with his bride Huma Abedin at a luxurious wedding celebration in Water Mill, New York. The guest list was a who's who of American politics, with A-listers Jimmy Fallon and Anna Wintour rubbing shoulders with Bill and Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, and Nancy Pelosi.
But amidst all the glamour and glitz, one notable absentee caught our attention: George Soros himself. According to sources close to the family, 94-year-old Soros skipped his son's big day to host an intimate gathering on Friday at his Southampton home. The reason for his absence? Not due to poor health, despite claims that he is "in good health," but rather a deliberate choice to avoid the spotlight.
However, in a clever move, Alex shared a photo of himself and his father wearing matching blue suits on Father's Day, captioning it: "Happy Father's Day to the goat! This was a special one." Talk about awkward timing? The photo op was likely an attempt by George to show he still cares despite missing his son's wedding.
But what really got our attention is the lavish celebration that ensued. Alex and Huma tied the knot in front of 200 guests, including Hollywood stars and politicians. Bill Clinton officiated at the ceremony, while a rabbi and imam joined hands to honor Alex's Jewish heritage and Huma's Muslim beliefs. It was a beautiful blend of cultures, but we couldn't help but wonder: what's next for this power couple?
Huma, who has been in the headlines for her messy divorce from Anthony Weiner (the ex-congressman who sexted nude pictures to young women), seems to have moved on with style and class. She wowed guests with a stunning Givenchy gown, designed specifically for her by Anna Wintour, who also spoke at the reception alongside Jimmy Kimmel.
But what about George? Is he feeling left out of the family festivities? Not quite. Sources close to the family reveal that George hosted an intimate gathering on Friday, complete with a special lunch for family and friends. And Alex made sure to give his father a shout-out in his Vogue interview, revealing that his blue tuxedo was inspired by happy memories with George.
The real question is: what's next for this power couple? With George named as heir to his father's $25 billion empire, it's clear they'll be rubbing shoulders with the world's elite for years to come. We can't wait to see what's in store for Alex and Huma – but first, let's take a closer look at their lavish wedding celebration.
The ceremony took place on Saturday at Alex's sprawling estate, surrounded by lush gardens and a private lake. Scores of blacked-out chauffeur-driven minivans and luxury cars lined up outside to ferry the A-list guests through the main gate. But what really caught our attention was the security detail – Secret Service agents were spotted guarding former President Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary as they arrived in a motorcade of black SUVs.
And speaking of security, we couldn't help but notice that Huma's ex-husband Anthony Weiner wasn't invited to the wedding. A clear sign that she's moved on for good? We hope so – after all, this power couple is meant to be the new face of Democratic politics.
But as we take a closer look at these two lovebirds, one thing becomes clear: they're not just any ordinary couple. They're part of the world's elite, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Michelle and Barack Obama (who were spotted on the guest list).
As the reception got underway, Huma took to the stage to share some heartfelt words about her journey to finding true love. "When Alex and I first met," she said, "he asked me out and I said 'no,' then I said 'maybe,' then I finally said 'yes.'" And in a nod to Anna Wintour's infamous wit, Jimmy Kimmel quipped: "Anna asked me to hold the mic, I said no, then I said maybe, then I said yes." The whole room erupted in applause.
As for George Soros? Well, we can't help but wonder what he was up to on Saturday while his son and new bride celebrated their love. Was it a quiet night in with Tamiko Bolton, his wife of many years? Or was he busy counting his billions – after all, as the heir to his father's empire, Alex is set to inherit an estimated $25 billion.
Whatever the case, one thing is clear: this power couple is here to stay. And we can't wait to see what they get up to next.
Sources close to the family reveal that George Soros is in good health, despite missing his son's wedding celebration.
A source told The Scholarly Note: "George is doing well and is still very active in politics." But we couldn't help but wonder: was he feeling left out of the family festivities?
As for Alex and Huma, it seems they're enjoying their honeymoon phase – or rather, their honeymoon period. They met at Nicky Hilton Rothschild's birthday party last fall and got engaged just a few months later.
But amidst all the glamour and glitz, one question remains: what does this mean for George Soros' legacy? Will he be passing on his empire to Alex and Huma, or will they forge their own path?
Only time will tell – but one thing is clear: this power couple is about to take the world by storm.
The wedding celebration was a star-studded affair, with A-listers like Jimmy Fallon and Anna Wintour rubbing shoulders with Bill and Hillary Clinton.
Anna Wintour, who designed Huma's Givenchy gown, took to the stage alongside Jimmy Kimmel to pay tribute to Alex and Huma's love story.
"It was an honor to be a part of this special day," said Huma, gazing lovingly at her husband. "Alex asked me out, I said 'no,' then maybe, and finally yes." The whole room erupted in applause as Jimmy Kimmel quipped: "Anna asked me to hold the mic, I said no, then I said maybe, then I said yes."
