Celebrities Accused Of 'Yachting' In Hollywood â And What Being A 'Yacht Girl' Really Means
Rumors suggest some women are paid to play..

![What Is A Yacht Girl? Celeb Women Accused Of Yachting In Hollywood woman on a man's shoulders partying](https://www.yourtango.com/sites/default/files/image_blog/yacht-girl.png)
Itâs easy to be envious when seeing the Instagram photos of young, carefree celebrity women seemingly having the time of their lives on yachts floating in exotic waters and in the VIP sections of the most exclusive clubs.
However, rumor has it there is much more than meets the eye when it comes to these âyacht girlsâ and their extravagant lifestyles.
What is a yacht girl?
According to Urban Dictionary , a yacht girl is âan attractive young woman who finds ways to get access to luxurious surroundings by being available to wealthy men.â
For example, you may follow a woman or two on Instagram who always seems to be partying or vacationing somewhere expensive (notably without ever showing who sheâs actually with). This is a person you could potentially describe as being a yacht girl.
And itâs not just those Instagram models and wannabe stars that are considered yacht girls. As you work up the wealth chain, you may be surprised to recognize some celebrity names synonymous with yachting.

What is 'yachting' in Hollywood?
In Hollywood, the term yacht girl essentially means a woman who works as an escort for high-end clientele , not just on yachts but for any social event.
While the practice has only somewhat recently gained mainstream notoriety, if you think back on the many tabloid photos of models and actresses on yachts from years past, it appears to be something that's gone on in Hollywood âfor 60 years,â according to Elie Nahas, who ran a Beirut-based modeling agency before being arrested on charges of running a prostitution ring in 2007.
In 2013, "The Hollywood Reporter" ran a feature describing this so-called yachting during the Cannes Film Festival.
âEvery year during the festival there are 30 or 40 luxury yachts in the bay at Cannes, and every boat belongs to a very rich person. Every boat has about 10 girls on it; they are usually models, and they are usually nude or half nude,â Nahas told THR.
At the end of the night, each woman would receive a âgift,â a generous amount of money that the client would put in an envelope for her.
And while many of these women were self-proclaimed local prostitutes and escorts, the Cannes Film Festival is, of course, known for its celebrity attendees â and itâs rumored that celebrity women trying to fast-track a name for themselves in Hollywood become yacht girls, too.
âWomen installed on yachts in Cannes during the film festival are called âyacht girls,â and the line between professional prostitutes and B- or C-list Hollywood actresses and models who accept payment for sex with rich older men is sometimes very blurred, explains one film industry veteran,â Dana Kennedy wrote for THR.
RELATED:Â What Is Instagram Face â And Which Celebrities Have It?
Some women in Hollywood have accused their celebrity peers of being yacht girls.
A 2017 blind item (celebrity gossip that doesnât outwardly name the celebrity) allegedly written by a struggling actress describes being lured by another actress into the world of yachting :
âThe actress I was talking to made it sound super easy and that she only had [sex] a few times with guys while yachting and that it was mostly partying and being arm candy,â she writes, explaining that eventually she agreed to try it for $25,000 upfront, but admitting that the experience was less than glamorous.
Blind item readers guessed that Canadian actress Vanessa Lengies wrote the blind item and further surmised that it may be one of the Glee actresses Naya Rivera or Heather Morris that introduced her to yachting. None of these claims have ever been substantiated.
If you believe the rumors, it would seem that yachting is a rite of passage for women hoping to âmake itâ in Hollywood, and even some celebrities we now consider A-List are thought to be former yacht girls.
In an excerpt from her 2021 memoir , âMy Body,â Emily Ratajkowski details being paid $25,000 at the start of her career to go to the Superbowl with now-disgraced Malaysian financier Jho Low, who "âjust liked to have famous men and women around,ââ she explains her manager told her at the time.
She writes about attending the star-studded Coachella on someone elseâs dime, having drinks paid for at clubs, and attending afterparties with Oscar-winning actors before actually becoming a celebrity herself.
One could infer from this recollection that, in order to be able to tell these stories, Ratajkowski was herself a yacht girl. âMy Bodyâ suggests as much, and in it, she subtly gives away the identity of another celebrity woman who yachted alongside her.
Ratajkowski describes watching as Low gave shots to a Victoriaâs Secret model. While she doesnât name drop, Ratajkowski gives just enough information for readers to figure who that model likely was.
âNow she kept her eyes locked on him as he took his shot, throwing her head back dramatically as he did, only to quickly toss the alcohol over her shoulder,â Ratajkowski writes. âWhen he faced her again, her eyes sparkled and the famous dimples appeared on her cheeks.â
Low has since become a fugitive wanted for allegedly running an international money laundering scheme, and in 2017, Reuters reported that model Miranda Kerr â known for her dimples â was being ordered to return âdiamond pendants, earrings and other jewelry worth about $8 millionâ that Low allegedly gifted her to government agents.
In 2017, Ratajkowski also posted a video on Instagram potentially outing Bella Hadid and Hailey Bieber as yacht girls as they danced aboard a yacht during that yearâs Cannes Film Festival.

Many people have also accused Meghan Markle of yachting (but then again, what haven't people accused Markle of at this point).
People have pointed to an old photo of Markle on a yacht as proof that sheâs a former yacht girl.

Another old blind item also suggested the former actress was available to ârent.â
"If you see B actress post scantily clad photos of themselves on Social Media, this is often a Comm to [them] that this person is available to ârentâ for a weekend of âyachting,ââ the tweet says, including a photo of Markle in a swimsuit.
"If you see B actress post scantily clad photos of themselves on Social Media, this is often a Comm to [them] that this person is available to ârentâ for a weekend of âyachtingâ.

Markleâs close friendship pre-Harry with actress Priyanka Chopra has naturally led some to guess that Chopra once yachted as well.
Another actress that faces endless rumors of yachting is Russian actress Irina Shayk , which according to THR, is par for the course as the outlet writes that yachting your way to stardom happens with âdisturbing frequency,â particularly when it comes to foreign-born actresses.
According to THR, who claims to know âof at least one now-prominent actress who made her first connections on a Cannes yacht and quickly landed her debut role in a U.S.-shot movie,â such as with Shaykâs 2014 film âHercules,â itâs âa red flag any time you see a foreign-born actress with no credits suddenly make her way into a U.S.-shot movie.â
Of course, when it comes to yachting in Hollywood, all of these claims appear to be unfounded.
These rumors make for good gossip, whether youâre talking about low-level social media influencers or high-profile celebrity actresses.
However, nothing is proven, leaving us to wonder any time we see a photo of women on a yacht.

Decoding Hollywood's Disturbing "Yachting" Culture Beneath the Glamour
![yachting celebrities reddit Jamie Lerner - Author](https://media.distractify.com/brand-img/dcwXjJZFT/200x200/headshot-1653400328516.jpg)
Dec. 19 2023, Published 10:41 p.m. ET
We explore the hidden meaning of "yachting" in Hollywood: individuals, often women, get paid large sums to spend time with wealthy individuals for career advancement.
Individuals may face uncomfortable situations, including sexual assault, trading dignity for fame, and money in a corrupt industry.
Prominent figures like Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande, Kylie and Kendall Jenner, Nina Dobrev, Hailey Bieber, and Emily Ratajkowski have all been linked anecdotally to Nonsense Pudding .
Thanks to influencers like Deux Moi , normies are finally getting a peek into the life of the rich and famous. And while pictures aboard yachts surrounded by luxury may look glamorous to all of us, it isn't necessarily all that itâs cracked up to be. Stories have been coming out for decades about people, often women, who subject themselves to âyachting.â
We may associate yachting with rich guys sailing in races, but it actually has a much darker meaning in Hollywood . Itâs often considered Hollywoodâs oldest âopen secret,â but what actually is âyachtingâ? Keep reading for all of the details.
In Hollywood, "yachting" is the practice of getting paid large sums of money to spend time with wealthy people.
At its most innocent, âyachtingâ is a PR opportunity for an up-and-coming actor or model. However, itâs often much more sinister. Basically, typically women on their way up in the industry may get paid a large sum of money â five, six, or even seven figures â to spend time with wealthy men. The benefit for the women is the money, the photo ops of luxury, and a potential opportunity to meet someone who could give them a leg up in the industry.
However, they often arenât told what strings are attached before agreeing to âyachtâ with someone. Many of these excursions often lead to sex and other forms of assault. Although the women tend to be up and coming celebs and influencers, they are essentially selling their body for the entirety of their time on the yacht. It gives âthe implicationâ a whole new meaning.
âYachtingâ is a common and known practice in Hollywood, but it could also be considered prostitution.
In 2007, businessman Elie Nahas was convicted of running a prostitution ring at the Cannes Film Festival. He claimed that he was only responsible for getting women to Cannes and had nothing to do with what happened after, but even if he did, there are hundreds of other men doing the same thing.
Many of us see pictures of celebrities on yachts and luxury vacations and think, "Wow, imagine living that life!" But in reality, they're being paid to spend time with someone they may not like just because it could further their career. But in doing so, many give up their bodies.
In fact, one Redditor wrote : âYou are essentially being bought for a certain period of time. Hence why people get drugged, raped, fondled, sleep with men older than their fathers, pissed and shat on. Once everything is said and done, the trauma and memories of doing those things stay with you forever. Your dignity is being leveraged for fame and money. Letâs not forget a lot of these encounters are filmed and can easily be used to blackmail these young stars.â
Itâs an example of powerful men taking advantage of young women with dreams of succeeding in an already corrupt industry. But the practice is so common that stories have circulated about Selena Gomez , Ariana Grande, Kylie and Kendall Jenner , Nina Dobrev, Hailey Bieber, and many other big stars.

Emily Ratajkowski also talks about it in her memoir, My Body . She explains how she was paid $25,000 early on in her career just to accompany Jho Low to the Super Bowl, without understanding what she was expected to do. So while the idea of riding around on a luxury yacht might sound ideal, many paths there arenât as great.

Is yachting really all about celebrities and TV shows?
It used to be that people would ask yachties âYou get paid to do that?â Now, in the social media generation, the questions crew get asked by non-yachties tend to be more about celebrities and the reality TV show âBelow Deck.â
Hereâs the buzz on our most recent Friday Funday question: When people find out you work on yachts, whatâs the most typical question they ask you?
Jeffrey W. Callahan: Is it like Below Deck?
Hugh David Black: Have you ever met anyone famous?
Robert Lattimer: Whoâs the owner?
Rx Santiago: Who is the boss? Is he or she famous?
Dave and Diane Johnson: (A conversation with a group of teenage girls in Greenport, N.Y.): Them: Is there anyone famous onboard? Me: I not aloud to say. Them: Please just tell me who it is! Me: I could lose my job if I do. Them: Is it Michael Jackson? Me: Really, I canât say. Them: Please tell him that we love him soooo much. Me: Ok, I will.
Thankfully, though, there are other brain cells in action and other questions do get asked.
Nicklaus Louw: How do you get the little boats on and off?
Veronica Hast: Do you really drive it?
Mike Jones: What’s your hourly rate?
Zach Kowalski: What do you do all day?
Martyn Walker: Whatâs the worst sea you have been in?
Palladium Techs: Do you get to go on all the yachts?
Cynthia Zvanut Hovey and Winston Hovey: How in the world did you get that job? (Thatâs why we wrote the book, âThereâs a Yacht More to Life: Loving, Working and Playing in Paradiseâ.)

Last week, Issa Rae threw her third annual yacht party, attended by stars including Gabrielle Union, Dwyane Wade, and Logan Browning. The tradition was born out of the desire to, as she put it during a recent Tonight Show appearance , "do yacht ish." Kylie Jenner also set sail this week; she is spending her 22nd birthday cruising the Mediterranean with friends and family on a yacht that costs $1M a week to rent. Rae is right about one thing: yachting is an art form. A culture. A genre of Instagram posts that we can't get enough of. Here, 29 celebs just doing #YachtShit.

- Seafaring Celebs: top 15+ stars who find refuge in yachting
Yachting, sailing and celebrities seem to go hand in hand. For those in the public eye, the allure of retreating to the open sea, where they can be enveloped by the wind, waves, and vast blue horizon, offers a rare opportunity for privacy and respite from the constant scrutiny of photographers. So, which celebrities are avid sailors or have even gone as far as to get their captain's licence?
For famous stars, superyachts serve as an extravagant "accessory" alongside private jets , opulent villas , and other luxuries made possible by their success and substantial earnings. The yachts owned by these famous individuals may vary in design and magnitude , but they share a more profound connection – their owner's deep-rooted passion for the sea .
In our roundup, you'll find the famous faces of British footballer David Beckham, tennis superstar Rafael Nadal, mixed martial arts champion Conor McGregor and fashion designer Giorgio Armani, as well as numerous actors, influencers and other well-known faces.
Zlatan IbrahimoviÄ and his "Unknown"
While the superyacht may be named Unknown , its owner is anything but. Swedish professional footballer Zlatan IbrahimoviÄ acquired the vessel in 2022, making it his second boat alongside the 34-meter Oasis yacht, crafted by Benetti. The world-renowned athlete renamed the superyacht Unknown and took it for a spin around Sardinia. IbrahimoviÄ proudly documented the journey on social media , sharing an array of photos and videos showcasing the fun he and his friends enjoyed aboard the yacht.

Experienced yachtsman Giorgio Armani making fashionable waves
Many fashion designers have also entered the world of yachting. Giorgio Armani , for example, boasts 40 years of sailing experience. Even his yacht Codecasa Main , which can accommodate up to 12 guests, exudes fashionable flair. Co-designed by Armani himself, the elegant 65-meter yacht features a distinct dark green exterior and angular lines inspired by military aesthetics. Inside, the yacht is all about subtle muted colours and striking accessories such as a spiral staircase , gym or cinema .

David Beckham and his lucky "Seven"
Naturally, a yacht is also part of David Beckham 's star-studded family's collection. Aptly named Seven , after the number the football icon donned on his jersey, David's 28-metre Riva Argo 90 is a sight to behold. Launched in October 2021, the iconic 'Seven' is propelled by two MTU diesel engines, reaching a top speed of 30 knots. The yacht's standout design elements include a sunbathing area on the bow, as well as an array of amenities and water toys for endless enjoyment.

What about the superyacht "Cyan"?
Rumors have circulated in the tabloids about this superyacht, initially attributing its ownership to U2's frontman, Bono . However, it is actually owned by U2's guitarist, the Edge . The yacht's crew dons rock-inspired uniforms, and the vessel boasts one of the finest outdoor cinemas found on a superyacht. Measuring an impressive 48.71 metres, the yacht remains in impeccable condition despite being launched in 1997, thanks to meticulous maintenance. It is currently available for charter through Burgess .

YACHTING.COM TIP: Ownership of certain yachts may change over time, but the yachts themselves continue to grace the seas, with their list of celebrity owners evolving through the years. To stay updated on which celebrity owns which yacht, keep an eye on our posts across social media platforms, particularly Instagram and Twitter.
Guitarist David Gilmour's concert at "Astoria"
Astoria , a 27-metre maritime legend, may appear more demure and vintage compared to contemporary superyachts. However, she boasts a rich history that sets her apart. Constructed in 1911 for British theatre manager Fred Karno , Astoria was designed with grand ambitions in mind — to accommodate on-board performances by up to a 90-piece orchestra !
In 1986 the yacht was purchased by the guitarist of Pink Floyd , who converted it into a recording studio with three cabins, a kitchen, bathroom and a large main salon. Parts of the last three Pink Floyd albums were recorded on board. Astoria is permanently moored on the River Thames in Greater London.

More tidbits and gossip from the world of celebrity sailing
The most expensive and largest yacht among all global celebrities is owned by Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich . In addition to Eclipse , he also possesses the superyachts Solaris and Sussurro . Abramovich is often described as the person to have owned the most megayachts in their lifetime. Jeff Bezos, too, has been known to buy and sell impressive yachts.
The yacht Amphitrite was previously owned by both J .K. Rowling and Johnny Depp . The Harry Potter author purchased the classic superyacht Amphitrite when it was previously owned by actor Johnny Depp, another yachting enthusiast, under the name Vajoliroja. At the time, the yacht's name was an amalgamation of his name and the names of his ex-wife Vanessa Paradis and their two children, Lily-Rose and Jack.
Superyacht Solaris, author Julien Hubert, photo source: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9852721/Roman-Abramovichs-430million-Solaris-spotted-time-sea-Antibes.html
Even the renowned American pianist Billy Joel owns a modern classic yacht called Vendetta . It is just one of the many yachts he has possessed, as Joel considers himself an avid yachting enthusiast. He even designs yachts for fellow celebrities. Legend has it that Billy Joel would use the yacht to travel from his Long Island home to the city where he was performing concerts. At one stage, he even owned five yachts.
Former American footballer Tom Brady also loves yachting and had a custom-built 16-metre cruiser made for him before ordering an even larger yacht towards the end of 2020. The Wajer 55S, christened Viva and Vida , boasts a baby blue hull and can reach speeds of up to 40 knots. Alongside an host of water toys, the boat features the convenience of push-button fenders and a retractable swim platform.
For renowned businessman Richard Branson , his yacht and a Caribbean island serve as sanctuaries where he can unwind from the pressures of his professional life. The 32-metre catamaran Necker Belle is named after Branson's island retreat, Necker Island, in the British Virgin Islands, which is among the most exclusive private islands owned by celebrities.
Although his superyacht Va Bene is currently for sale, Clapton also owns a yacht called Blue Guitar , named after his famous guitar.

Celebrities and yachts undoubtedly go hand in hand. Not only are celebrities accustomed to the opulent lifestyle of the world's wealthiest individuals, but they also possess the financial means to charter or even purchase a luxury yacht. Furthermore, images of them enjoying themselves on a superyacht bolster their "superstar image," which their fans adore. To conclude our list, one might say that a celebrity who doesn't sail, in Hollywood and beyond, is practically unheard of...

ATHENS, Greece (AP) â A French crew member on a boat participating in a yacht race on the Aegean Sea has died after falling overboard in strong winds, Greek officials said Tuesday.
A coast guard statement said the accident occurred late Monday off the eastern island of Kassos. It identified the crew member as a 40-year-old woman. It said a second crew member who went overboard was rescued.
Race organizers said the dead crew member had a severe head injury and efforts to revive her were unsuccessful. The yacht was taking part in the international Aegean 600 that started Sunday.
Organizers said Mondayâs severe weather forced 14 of the 69 yachts participating to drop out.

Richard Simmons , the goofy clown prince of fitness who turned his passion for weight loss into riches and fame as a Hollywood celebrity, has died. He was 76.
A rep for Simmons told The Hollywood Reporter that he died earlier Saturday at his home in Los Angeles. His cause of death wasn’t immediately available.

“I don’t want people to be sad about my brother,” Lenny Simmons, Richard’s brother, shared in a statement.” I want them to remember him for the genuine joy and love he brought to people’s lives. He truly cared about people. He called, wrote, and emailed thousands of people throughout his career to offer help. So don’t be sad. Celebrate his life.”
The star of his own syndicated TV exercise show in the 1980s, the curly-haired Simmons sold millions of aerobics Sweatin ‘ to the Oldies videos and DVDs.
At his peak, Simmons, who sported too-short shorts and a sparkly tank top with Swarovski crystals during his workouts, flew around the country making motivational speeches and conducting fitness classes for rapt fans.
In 1980, he published Richard Simmons’ Never-Say-Diet Book , a huge best-seller that had chapters like “Coming to Grips With Your Hips” and “How to Eat Out and Not Pig Out.”
Simmons went on to appear as himself on such series as Arrested Development , Amazing Stories , CHiPs , The Larry Sanders Show and General Hospital and was a frequent guest/foil on The Howard Stern Show and on David Letterman’s late night talk shows.
Later, he voiced the character Coach Salmons on the 2010-12 Disney Channel animated series Fish Hooks .
Simmons was born Milton Teagle Simmons in New Orleans on July 12, 1948, grew up in the French Quarter and sold pralines on the street. He was overweight as a kid and said he weighed nearly 270 pounds when he graduated high school.
Simmons vowed to get in shape and, at 5-foot-7, got down to about 150 pounds. He headed west and brought his weight-loss message to Beverly Hills, opening a combination exercise studio (Anatomy Asylum) and restaurant ( Ruffage ) in 1974. His clientele included Barbra Streisand , Dustin Hoffman, Cheryl Ladd, Diana Ross and Paul Newman.
In November 2016 , Simmons shuttered the studio, most recently called Slimmons . “The studio is where my whole career started,” he wrote on his website. “I began doing local shows in the city. And then I got my big break to play myself on General Hospital .”
Five months earlier, Simmons was transported from his home to a hospital by ambulance after the Los Angeles Fire Department responded to a 911 call. He said later that he was dehydrated and told his fans not to worry about his health.
The New York Daily News reported in March 2016 that he was being held against his will in his home. But Simmons, who hadn’t been seen in public in about two years, denied that on the Today show. “No one is holding me in my house as a hostage,” he said.
In January, Simmons said he didn’t approve of a biopic of his life from The Wolper Organization that Pauly Shore would star in. “I have never given my permission for this movie,” he said.
Survivors include his brother, Lenny.
On the eve of his death, Simmons was on Facebook, expressing his appreciation to fans for their birthday wishes. “Thank you … I never got so many messages about my birthday in my life!” he wrote. “I am sitting here writing emails. Have a most beautiful rest of your Friday.”

Two of Hollywood's most controversial leading men have been hanging out â and the internet isn't too happy about it.
They've played The Fresh Prince and Captain Jack Sparrow , but in real life, Will Smith and Johnny Depp are raising eyebrows for reprising other roles: longtime friends.
The pair were pictured overseas this week on a yacht in Tuscany with Egyptian singer Ahmed Saad ahead of attending Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli's  30th-anniversary concert. On Wednesday, a video of the duo was shared on Bocelli's official Instagram Story , but not everybody is feeling the love.
In recent years, both men have been embroiled in highly publicized controversies surrounding assaults and violence â and cast aside as embattled A-listers.

Will Smith and Johnny Depp criticized for hanging out: 'I've had it'
In a Buzzfeed article published Wednesday, writer Natasha Jokic took issue with the two men for hanging out together.
"I just refuse to sit here and act like it isn't absolutely freakish behavior," adding that "I firmly believe Heard will find her place in groveling, 'we-were-so-wrong' media reexaminations in future years, but I don't care to wait that long."
Some on social media didn't appreciate the snap of Smith and Depp, either.
"Ew. Would love to see Amber and Jada in a pic together instead, two of 'the most hated women in the world'. It would be empowering," one user wrote.
Another said, "Ew. Johnny Depp is a wife beating rapist."
One commenter continued: "Well now Iâm glad I didn't see bad boys in theaters. I was planning too soon."
Depp was center stage two years ago in a defamation trial involving allegations of abuse from his ex-wife, "Aquaman" actress Amber Heard . Earlier that year, at the 94th Academy Awards in March, Smith slapped Chris Rock after the comedian joked about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith's shaved head from alopecia.
However, the criticism comes amid public comebacks for both men.
Last month, Smith starred opposite Martin Lawrence in "Bad Boys: Ride or Die ," the fourth film in the legendary movie franchise. Depp made an acting comeback earlier this year as Franceâs King Louis XV, in the French-language film "Jeanne du Barry" in May.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.
Serena Williams’ husband, Alexis Ohanian, has been diagnosed with Lyme disease.
The Reddit founder, 41, shared the health news via X (formerly known as Twitter) on Tuesday, âDoing a full battery of health scans, tests, etc, and found out I have lyme disease.
The father of two added that the results were “wild” as he didn’t feel ill “thankfully.”
![yachting celebrities reddit Alexis Ohanian.](https://pagesix.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/07/alexis-ohanian-principal-owner-angel-85349601.jpg)
â[…] gonna treat. Good cholesterol is too low. Bad cholesterol is just OK. Gotta work on that. On the plus-side: 822 ng/dL total + 162 ng/dL free testosterone.â
According to the Mayo Clinic , the disease is caused by borrelia bacteria and humans usually get it from an infected tick bite.
Early symptoms can include fever, headaches, tiredness, muscle aches and pains. If it’s untreated, the symptoms can become more serious and include muscle weakness, numbness and vision loss.
![yachting celebrities reddit Alexis Ohanian.](https://pagesix.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/07/alexis-ohanian-looks-prior-womens-85349587.jpg)
The business whiz further told his fans that he was shocked by the diagnosis because he has spent “so little time in the wilderness and Northeast,” where Lyme Disease is most common.
âIâve got a loved one who had it a few years back, showed tons [of] symptoms etc and just couldnât figure it out until they tested him for it and then found it (treated it successfully, too),â he added.
Ohanian then advised his 500k followers on the platform to seek professional medical help if they wanted to get tested for Lyme Disease.

âPlease talk to a doctor,â he wrote. âDo not listen to me for any health advice!â
More than 470,000 Americans are diagnosed with Lyme disease each year, according to the CDC.
Despite the news, Ohanian ended the news on a cheery note.

“Anyway, gonna grab some antibiotics â can’t keep me down, tick!” he wrote alongside a gif of the cartoon character TickMan.
The investor has been married to Williams since 2017 and they share two daughters, Olympia, 6, and Adira, who turns 1 in August.
The couple announced Adira’s birth last year on social media.
âIâm grateful to report our house is teaming with love: a happy & healthy newborn girl and happy & healthy mama,â Ohanian gushed. âFeeling grateful. @serenawilliams youâve now given me another incomparable gift â youâre the GMOAT.”

29 Most Expensive Celebrity Yachts, Ranked by Value
![yachting celebrities reddit David and Victoria Beckham Yacht](https://thumbor.bigedition.com/david-and-victoria-beckham-yacht/LiJiRlFTPMxjMaa3GcEMARIso2o=/0x0:1820x1365/800x0/filters:quality(80)/granite-web-prod/5e/57/5e5794d2290b49e89d6509d90895143e.jpeg)
Celebrities consistently create demand in the private yacht market. If a celebrity’s net worth is in the high millions or more, they can certainly afford to indulge in luxury superyachts, which can cost well into seven figures or more and have six- to seven-figure annual operating costs.
The main reason that celebrities like yachting is that they can enjoy intimate, low-key trips with friends and family, out of reach of paparazzi cameras. Tiger Woods enjoys personal time aboard his yacht so much that he named the ship Privacy and even sleeps on board when he travels to golf tournaments.
Even if celebrities don’t own a yacht, they may charter them, as Rihanna and Beyonce do, for quiet time away from the spotlight. After traveling on a friend’s yacht, or chartering one, a celebrity may decide to take the plunge and buy one themselves. That’s what happened to Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling after she chartered actor Johnny Depp’s yacht. The Beckhams decided to get their own vessel after spending summers on the Mediterranean with their good friend Sir Elton John on his yacht Wabi Sabi. Some celebrities, such as Apple founder Steve Jobs, singer Billy Joel or fashion designer Roberto Cavalli, were involved in every step of creating their own customized yacht.
So, which celebrity yachts are the most expensive and extravagant? We made a list of the top ones — some of which have been sold in recent years, possibly due to their high operating costs, but will always be identified with their iconic celebrity owners. We then ranked the yachts by their current value, adjusted for inflation.

This 88.5-foot vessel is a houseboat turned into a floating recording studio. Pink Floyd’s lead guitarist David Gilmour bought Astoria in 1986 and repurposed it to record albums. In some of Pink Floyd’s songs, you can hear the sound of boats and birds from the river.

The ship contains four bedrooms and can accommodate eight guests. The top sundeck has its own bar and also doubles as a casual dining area.

Former Manchester United soccer star David Beckham and his wife, fashion designer and former pop star Victoria Beckham, had spent time with friends on their yachts, or chartered boats. They finally decided to buy one for themselves, a 94-foot vessel made by SeaFair Yachts, which they call “Sophisticated Lady,” possibly a reference to Victoria’s Spice Girl days.
The yacht can accommodate up to eight guests and four crew members and features a gym and plenty of both interior and deck space. This may just be the beginning for their yacht club, though — David Beckham was recently spotted in Italy looking at a $14.1 million superyacht.

Look, watching either of your parents makeout with someone has to be a little awkward, even if itâs a step-parent.

When Kourt, 45, and the drummer, 48, reunited in Australia during his tour, they couldnât keep their hands off of each other.
As they met up down under, Kourtney ran up to Travis and started making out with him. She revealed that while he was on the road with blink-182 in Australia, it had been the longest stretch that theyâd been apart since she gave birth to their baby boy Rocky , 8 months. âMy husband is home.

Confessions of a superyacht stewardess.

Life onboard a superyacht as a stewardess
Story highlights.
Most chartered yachts cost between $300,000 to over $1 million per week
The role of a stewardess is broad, they work as cleaners, cocktail mixologists, waiters and even yoga teachers
Come summertime, the harbors of the Dalmatian Coast, French Riviera and Amalfi Coast fill with luxurious superyachts.
These incredible vessels are owned and enjoyed by celebrities, royalty and titans of industry.
The smooth running of these colossal boats depends on a troop of dedicated workers. And among the most diligent are stewardesses.
They call themselves âglorified housekeepersâ but theyâre much more than that.
Theyâre also entertainers, cleaners, cocktail mixologists, waiters and even yoga teachers.
Chief Stewardess, Gemma Hulbert , has been working as a âstewâ for almost seven years.
âWeâre caretakers for the guests â anything and everything they need is done before they need it,â the 25-year-old explains, adding that guest requests at times can be quite unusual.
Once, she says, a guest only wanted to bathe in half a tub of hot water that was then topped off with half a bottle of none-other than Fiji water and half a cup of baby oil.
âThat was so much fun to clean from the marble after,â Hulbert quips.

âIâve also had a charter guest in the past who purchased a vintage Hermes bag in the States so our purser (the officer on board who keeps the accounts) had to organize a private jet to go to the States from Monaco to pick up the bag and bring it back so she could take it to a gala the next day,â she adds.

Chelsea Nielsen also works as a superyacht stewardess and on-board yoga teacher â something she calls both exhausting and rewarding.
âThey (guests) are used to luxuries â theyâre desensitized to having help 24/7 and having people take care of them 24/7,â the 33-year-old tells CNN from Monaco during one of her rare days off.
âOf course, they have expectations as I do if I go to a restaurant, but as far as people being the clients I have worked with or worked for have truly only been grateful and gracious.
âYou can always tell who has come down from generations of wealth â they just carry themselves with a bit of grace and class versus maybe someone who has just come into money for the first time and they have a little bit of their nose in the air, little bit of an attitude about them.
âNo judgment of course! Itâs just interesting.â
