As per real estate records, Gisele recently acquired the 9-bedroom property in Southwest Ranches, an upscale enclave situated approximately 30 miles to the northwest of Miami.
The estate boasts a cutting-edge equestrian arena featuring 10 spacious horse stalls, aligning perfectly with Gisele's and her children's shared passion for horseback riding, a hobby they've enjoyed together, even embarking on horseback riding excursions in Costa Rica with her rumored flamed, Joaquim Valente.
Situated on an expansive 7.5-acre parcel, the property also offers an outdoor culinary haven complete with a hibachi grill, pizza oven, BBQ pit, and a wine fridge.
The main residence offers a first-floor master suite with a luxurious sanctuary plus its own private sitting area, well-appointed bathroom, and an ample walk-in closet. A striking floating glass staircase leads to the remainder of the residence.
Moreover, the gourmet kitchen is a culinary enthusiast's dream, showcasing Italian-imported quartz countertops and an oversized island complete with a breakfast bar.

She bought the property at the end of last year, with reports saying the supermodel hopes the close proximity to her ex’s house would make it easier to co-parent their children.
The Miami beach residence spans an impressive 6,600 square feet and is equipped with an array of top-notch amenities, including a state-of-the-art home theater, a fully-equipped gym, and a dedicated playroom for her children.
Additionally, the property features a private dock at the rear, mirroring a similar feature found at Tom's home.
At this time, it’s unclear if Gisele plans to keep both Florida properties, or if she’ll offload the estate she purchased last year in lieu of making the newer residence her main home.
Despite having a $700 million combined fortune Gisele and Tom’s divorce was relatively quick, with reports attributing that to having a tight-prenup. After Gisele filed in 2022, their shock divorce was settled in a matter of months.
Jay-Z -- whose real name is Shawn Corey Carter -- has a name that resonates far beyond the boundaries of the music industry. While he is undoubtedly one of the most influential and acclaimed hip-hop artists of all time, his impact extends well into the realm of business and entrepreneurship. Let’s embark on a journey through the diverse and impressive array of business ventures undertaken by Jay-Z.
Jay-Z has forged a diverse music empire over his illustrious career. Originating in the hip-hop scene, Jay-Z extended his reach into multiple facets of the music industry, encompassing record labels, artist management, and streaming services. In 1996, Jay-Z played a pivotal role in the establishment of Roc-A-Fella Records, an independent hip-hop label that later evolved into a joint venture with Def Jam Recordings.
In 2008, he launched Roc Nation, an all-encompassing entertainment enterprise that includes artist management, a record label, and a publishing division. Acknowledging the increasing significance of digital streaming in the music sector, Jay-Z took ownership of Aspiro, a Scandinavian firm that managed the ailing music streaming service known as TIDAL, in 2015. Subsequently, he rebranded and revitalized the platform as a premium service centered around artists, positioning it in direct competition with Spotify and Apple Music.
Jay-Z's enterprising nature has also driven him to diversify his business interests into the world of fashion. A prominent instance of this is Rocawear, a fashion label he helped establish in 1999. This urban fashion brand has evolved into a significant presence in the fashion industry, serving a wide range of customer demographics and providing a variety of items including apparel, footwear, and accessories.
Rocawear's triumph can be ascribed to Jay-Z's formidable branding prowess and his adeptness at harnessing his sway in the music sector. This approach has contributed to shaping a distinctive character for the brand, associating it closely with hip-hop culture and resonating with a broad spectrum of consumers.
Jay-Z has substantially broadened his array of business interests over time, with a particular emphasis on the beverage sector. Among his most remarkable endeavors is Armand de Brignac, a premium champagne brand popularly recognized as "Ace of Spades." Jay-Z possesses full ownership of this label, which has an impressive valuation of approximately $630 million.
In addition to champagne, Jay-Z has ventured into the realm of cognac through a partnership with Bacardi. Together, they introduced D'Ussé, a top-tier cognac label. While specific information regarding their collaboration and ownership shares in this joint venture remains undisclosed to the public, it appears that both entities have successfully resolved any disagreements that may have arisen during the establishment of the D'Ussé brand.
One of his most noteworthy partnerships is with Live Nation, a prominent event-related entertainment firm, enabling him to collaborate closely with artists such as Rihanna, Kanye West, J. Cole, and numerous others. An influential factor contributing to Jay-Z's influence in the entertainment industry is his collaboration with Jay Brown in establishing Roc Nation.
This diverse entertainment company encompasses artist management, music publishing, and even sports representation. Roc Nation Sports, under the leadership of industry veteran Juan Perez, has emerged as a significant player in athlete representation. Distinguished athletes including Kevin Durant, Meek Mill, Big Sean, and DJ Khaled have all entered agreements with Roc Nation Sports.
One of Jay Z's most substantial investments can be found in the ridesharing firm Uber. Alongside his commitment to Uber, he has also put his money into JetSmarter, a private aviation firm striving to transform private jet travel. Jay Z's involvement with these two transport startups showcases his methodical strategy to progressively broaden his portfolio.
Beyond the realm of transportation, Jay Z has displayed activity in the technology and finance industries. His venture capital company, Arrive, concentrates on assisting fledgling startups by furnishing them with essential resources for expansion. Under the umbrella of Arrive, Jay Z has injected funds into diverse firms, including JetSmarter and the financial technology (fintech) company Robinhood.
Jay-Z's real estate portfolio is a testament to his keen business acumen and his ability to diversify his investments beyond the realm of music and entertainment. One of his most notable real estate acquisitions is a sprawling mansion in Los Angeles' exclusive Bel-Air neighborhood. This lavish estate boasts breathtaking views of the city and the Pacific Ocean, featuring amenities fit for a mogul, including a spa, wellness center, and an impressive outdoor infinity pool. It's not just a residence; it's a symbol of his success.
On the East Coast, Jay-Z and his wife Beyoncé, have made their mark in the Hamptons, a renowned enclave for the rich and famous east of Manhattan. Their expansive waterfront property offers seclusion and luxury, providing a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of urban life. This stunning home showcases his dedication to both privacy and extravagance.
Jay-Z's fine art collection stands as a testament to his appreciation for the creativity and cultural significance of the art world. Among his most prized possessions are works by Jean-Michel Basquiat, a figure whose influence on contemporary art cannot be overstated. Basquiat's fusion of graffiti, abstraction, and social commentary in his work resonates deeply with Jay-Z, reflecting a shared understanding of artistic expression and societal critique.
One of the crown jewels of Jay-Z's art collection is a Basquiat masterpiece titled Mecca. This striking piece, characterized by bold colors and intricate symbolism, captures the essence of Basquiat's oeuvre. "Mecca" not only serves as a striking visual centerpiece but also represents a shrewd investment.
Jay-Z has been making substantial advancements in the cannabis and CBD sector. He introduced Monogram, his personal cannabis brand, in collaboration with the California-based cannabis firm Caliva. Monogram presents a variety of premium cannabis items, including luxe hand-rolled joints, underscoring Jay-Z's focus on enhancing the norms of cannabis culture and use.
Jay-Z's involvement in the cannabis industry goes beyond just his own ventures; he serves as the Chief Visionary Officer at The Parent Company (TPCO). TPCO was established through a merger involving Caliva and Monogram, in addition to Left Coast Ventures, forming a significant new player in the cannabis sector. In his role, Jay-Z oversees brand strategy and Social Equity Ventures, a corporate venture fund.

Darts has evolved over the last few decades, from a traditional British pub game to a global professional sport with millionaire players. Thanks to expanded television coverage and larger tournaments with massive prize purses, the top darts players now have an earning potential to amass fortunes.
The best players can accrue career earnings from tournament prizes in the millions, especially if they can sustain success across many years.

Though he never made the switch to the more lucrative Professional Darts Corporation, Wolfie's long career still allowed him to accrue over $1 million in earnings before retiring in 2016.
The three-time BDO World Champion switched to the PDC in 2019 and quickly rose in the rankings.

Durrant has participated in major PDC tournaments, including the PDC World Darts Championship and the Premier League. His performances in these events have been spectacular, and he is destined for greatness.
Dennis Priestley was one of the first true superstars of professional darts, helping globalize the sport in the 1990s. With two World Championship wins and numerous other titles, Priestley quickly became a household name. His success on the board allowed him to be the first darts player ever to earn $1 million in career prize money.
The Canadian three-time World Champion was one of the top players throughout the 2000s before retiring in 2018. John earned a comfortable retirement from the sport thanks to over $1 million banked in winnings and exhibition income. He is often regarded as one of the game's greatest players and has been a source of inspiration for Canadian darts enthusiasts.
With his first World Championship in 2011, "Jackpot" became a back-to-back champion by winning again in 2012. Those accolades helped propel Lewis's career earnings to over $1.5 million. Still chasing titles, the Stoke native is likely to see his fortune keep growing. Lewis has regularly participated in the PDC Premier League, which features the top players in darts competing over several weeks in a round-robin format.
Peter Wright is commonly known as "Snakebite," a reference to his colorful and snake-themed stage persona. His entertaining and charismatic presence has made him a fan favorite. Peter Wright branded himself well to become one of the most recognizable players. The lifetime earnings of the 2020 World Champion are approaching $2 million. With plenty of time left in his career, Wright's net worth should continue rising.
The "Flying Scotsman" has won two World Championships and over $2.5 million in tournament winnings. While still an active player on the circuit, the 51-year-old signed sponsorship deals with Unicorn and Lonsdale that set him up nicely for retirement from the sport.
Another Dutch great, "Barney" won four World Championships between 1998 and 2007. His success made him one of the most popular players ever. Although he's now retired from professional darts, Raymond amassed over $3.5 million in prize money during his long career at the top.
The current world number one has already won over $7 million in prize money at just age 33. Mighty Mike has been the top-ranked player for years and continues to rack up titles. With lucrative deals from sponsors like Unibet and Target Darts, his estimated net worth is around $8 million. The Dutch phenom has years left to keep adding to his fortune.
Nicknamed "The Power," Phil Taylor is commonly considered the greatest player ever in the game. This World Champion (16 times over) dominated the sport for over two decades, winning over 200 professional tournaments. His influence on darts is immeasurable. He not only achieved remarkable success, but also played a significant role in popularizing and professionalizing the sport. Taylor's domination of darts allowed him to become a wealthy man despite humble beginnings as a working-class bloke from Stoke.
