He is now flogging the family home – where he lives with fiance Anna Hansen and his five kids – for a more modern upgrade.

Estate agent Laura Gottesman said: “$8.2 was more of a ‘make me an offer’ price.

“$7.5million is really where we can justify the valuation and it’s more appropriate for today’s market.”
