Snap CEO Evan Spiegel and his model wife Miranda Kerr reportedly purchased a mansion in Paris for $30 million, according to Mary K. Jacob of The New York Post.
As reported by the Post, the 10,000-square-foot residence situated near the Seine in Paris features a swimming pool, six bedrooms, five toilets, a private dressing room, a music room, a wine cellar, a courtyard, a garden, a library, and space for nurses, servants, or caterers.
Reportedly, Spiegel and Kerr paid $30,358,000 to acquire the property in May of last year.
Additionally, the couple purchased a residence in Brentwood, California, for $12 million in 2016. Their nuptials were held in the 7,164-square-foot residence in 2017. After that, Kerr and Spiegel have been the joint guardians of two children, namely Hart and Myles, and co-parent Flynn, Kerr’s son with her former spouse, Orlando Bloom.
Following the acquisition of French citizenship, Spiegel, who was born and reared in Southern California, completed the purchаse of a property in Paris. French law authorized the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to bestow French nationality on “a French-speaking foreigner who requests it and contributes [to France] through exceptional action to the standing of France and the prosperity of international economic relations.” In 2018, Spiegel was bestowed with French citizenship.
Several of Spiegel’s close acquaintances are influential figures in the French business community, including Antoine Arnault, the CEO of fashion house Berluti and the son of LVMH CEO Bernard Arnault, and telecom magnate Xavier Niel.
At the time, a Snap spokesperson told the French publication Les Echos, “He genuinely adores France.” “He goes several times a year and has been learning the language for several years.”
Snap had 80 French-based employees as of 2019 and had acquired Zenly, a French startup that provided the technology for Snap Maps, for $213 million.
