Starting with a shot of a wheel, with the Ferrario yellow logo, she then shared a snap of a red key with the luxury car brand tagged and posed the question, “you like?”

Later though she revealed it was an April Fool’s and wished her followers “a great week”.

In February, the Nassif’s somewhat unwillingly became social media stars when a video Jean shared on Instagram went viral.

The video showed him gifting his socialite and sometime actor wife a $480,000 yellow Lamborghini.

The original video featured the Toplace director saying: “Congratulations Mrs Nassif — do you like?”, as his second wife casually strolls into the garage and blows him a kiss.

The Nassifs were subsequently mocked in spoof videos where posters use yellow items to imitate the original video.

In the spoof videos, instead of a yellow Lamborghini, users substituted items including toy cars, lemons, a rubber duck, a banana, a Teletubbies doll, a wheelie bin, a container of Vegemite­, a tin of tuna and a yellow bicycle.

Jean meanwhile is now known for his lavish lifestyle. Earlier this year he splashed $75,000 on his 50th birthday bash, taking over the Boom Box space at Sydney’s Marquee nightclub.

Again, in a video shared to social media, he was seen surrounded by scantily clad dancers and a cabaret singer covering Shirley Bassey classic Big Spender.
