I just presume that kind of house happens when you're sick of seeing who your partner is bringing in to bang.

Its just two houses side by side connected by a tunnel. Its not even that uncommon among the rich. Why walk outside to visit your rich relative when you can just use an overly constructed pathway?

So I knew his babysitter from a friend of a friend back in like 2008.

Elizabeth was ill with the cancer that would eventually kill her.

John would be in a different wing of the house on a stair master for like four hours a day and never saw his kids.

At one point the friend of a friend brought her bf over and the kids went up to him asking if he was their dad.

That just looks like a bigger New England connected farm, but I am vexed that the barn appears to have a visitors center attached to it

Could be a permitting thing. It can be a lot tougher to get permission for a new standalone structure but with that it’s just an ‘extension’ of the primary house.

It’s famous for being a massive playground for celebrities and it’s famous for being paparazzi free. Last time I was there years ago, Reese Witherspoon was literally chilling with her son at the clubhouse listening to music on some sort of laptop. Nobody bugged her. Paparazzi aren’t allowed on the island. Tourists aren’t really allowed on the island.

Now tell me about your experience there.

quote:

As the FTX cryptocurrency exchange imploded last fall, Tom Brady, the seven-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback, made an urgent phone call.

He dialed Sina Nader, FTX’s head of partnerships. The exchange’s staff was in the middle of a crisis meeting with its beleaguered founder, Sam Bankman-Fried. Mr. Nader couldn’t answer. “I never would’ve expected to decline a call from Tom Brady,” he said.

Mr. Brady had reasons to be concerned. As an “ambassador” for FTX, he had appeared at the company’s conference in the Bahamas and in TV commercials that promoted the exchange as “the most trusted” institution in the loosely regulated world of crypto.

His money was also at stake. As part of an endorsement agreement Mr. Brady signed in 2021, FTX had paid him $30 million, a deal that consisted almost entirely of FTX stock, three people with knowledge of the contract said. Mr. Brady’s wife at the time, the supermodel Gisele Bündchen, was paid $18 million in FTX stock, one of the people said.

Now FTX is bankrupt, and Mr. Bankman-Fried is facing criminal fraud charges. Mr. Brady, 45, and Ms. Bündchen, 42, have been sued by a group of FTX customers seeking compensation from the celebrities who endorsed the exchange. On top of it all, the terms of the deal would have required the former couple, who divorced last year, to pay taxes on at least some of their now worthless FTX stock, two people familiar with the endorsement deal said.

***

In 2021, Mr. Brady also co-founded Autograph, which helps famous people sell the crypto collectibles known as nonfungible tokens, or NFTs. Autograph raised more than $200 million from investors, and Mr. Bankman-Fried joined the board.

That same year, Mr. Brady and Ms. Bündchen starred in a $20 million advertising campaign for FTX, with commercials that ran during N.F.L. games. Mr. Brady also posted TikTok videos with Mr. Bankman-Fried from FTX’s headquarters in the Bahamas, where he spoke at a conference in front of hundreds. Backstage, Mr. Bankman-Fried remarked that he could imagine buying a football team someday with Mr. Brady. Ms. Bündchen also appeared at the conference as FTX’s head of environmental and social initiatives.

When FTX collapsed last November, the company’s $32 billion valuation — including Mr. Brady and Ms. Bündchen’s $48 million of shares — plummeted to zero. The couple had also received a small amount of Ethereum, Bitcoin and Solana tokens to trade on the platform, one of the people said, which disappeared in FTX’s bankruptcy.

***

Mr. Brady’s other crypto venture has also struggled. Autograph’s revenue sank last year amid the crypto meltdown, a person familiar with its finances said. The start-up has shifted its strategy to focus more on helping celebrities find ways to foster loyalty with their fans, and less on marketing crypto tokens to consumers, the person said. The firm has also removed some crypto language from its marketing, downplaying terms like NFT, another person with knowledge of the company said.

***

Mr. Brady has also faced legal trouble. In December, the lawyer Adam Moskowitz and the law firm Boies Schiller Flexner filed a lawsuit in federal court in Florida accusing him and Ms. Bündchen of misleading investors. Among the other defendants are the comedian Larry David, the N.B.A. star Steph Curry and the tennis player Naomi Osaka, all of whom endorsed FTX.
