The billionaire, his lawyer wife – and the secrets of their explosive relationship

Richard White says he would “take a bullet” for his wife but many of the billionaire’s long-time friends are unhappy about the marriage and the couple’s volatile history.

Richard White with wife Zena Nasser. The couple married in July. 

On a Sunday afternoon in October, guests carrying luxury gifts from Dior and Hermès were shepherded into Richard White’s Palm Beach mansion.

The occasion was a commitment ceremony to mark White’s marriage to Zena Nasser in Texas three months earlier, and the arrival of a daughter born via surrogate. A posse of Nasser’s friends from Sydney’s eastern suburbs accounted for much of the guest list.
