Billionaire Richard Lugner – known for his extravagant lifestyle, many wives and glamourous dates with a-listers – has died at the age of 91 after suffering several health issues.

The construction tycoon and socialite, who made headlines for paying the world’s VIPs to attend Vienna’s annual Opera Ball, passed away in his Viennese villa on Monday, Austrian media reported.

Just a few weeks ago, Lugner married his sixth wife, 42-year-old actress Simone ‘Biene’ Reilaender – who was 49 years his junior – in a ceremony documented by 20 TV crews and photographers.

Lugner – nicknamed Mr Concrete – was notorious for the celebrity friends he was often seen partying with, with the billionaire reportedly paying six-figure sums to stars like Kim Kardashian, Geri Halliwell and Paris Hilton to be on his arm at the Opera Ball.

 

Since 1992, Lugner invited acting icons like Goldie Hawn, Joan Collins and Jane Fonda as a special guest for the event, with Fonda saying he paid her ‘quite a bit of money’ to attend.

 

Geri Halliwell attended the Vienna Opera Ball with Richard Lugner in February 2005, but declined to dance with the billionaire

Lugner had married just two months ago to Simone Reilaender, who is 49 years his junior (pictured: Lugner and Reilaender’s wedding in June)
