Viewers were treated to a glimpse of how the other half live tonight on the Channel 4 documentary My Millionaire Dads And Me.
The show followed round millionaire dads Tony and Barrie – who hit the headlines in the late 90s when they became the first gay dads in Britain – and their surrogate kids Aspen and Saffron.
Aspen received a Porsche for his 16th birthday – yep, one whole year before he can even legally start lessons – and seemed fairly underwhelmed by it. Much to the amusement of viewers at home.
Saffron showed a similar attitude when the family went shopping and she picked up a “bargain dress” for her 16th birthday party at $495 (£380) – and that’s when some people weren’t sure they liked the direction the show was taking.
However, no matter what people thought of how much the kids were treated to, they agreed the negativity the dads had received was very saddening. For some, it was very inspiring viewing.
