Billionaire Barry Diller and fashion designer wife Diane von Furstenberg pay $45million for 1.5-acre waterfront LOT in Miami - joining growing list of celebs moving to Sunshine State


Media mogul Barry Diller has become the latest billionaire to put down roots in Florida after splashing out on a waterfront plot of land in Miami Beach for an eyewatering $45million.

The senior executive and chairman of IAC, 82, and his fashion icon wife Diane von Furstenberg, 77, closed on the deal for the 1.5-acre lot last week, nearly two months after the property went under contract, insiders told DailyMail.com. In a deal brokered by Reid Heidenry and Marko Gojanovic of One Sotheby's International, Diller acquired the land from fellow businessman Bruce Beal Jr., who had owned the property since 2018, when it was still the site of the Whitehall Mansion. The move, which adds to Diller's already impressive real estate portfolio, has also earned the couple a spot on the growing list of well-heeled celebrities, entrepreneurs, and billionaires alike who have recently headed south to make Florida their home.
