Two-day-old baby becomes millionaire with $2 mil house and $10 mil trust fund

It was all thanks to the newborn's famous grandad, who's worth a staggering $380 million. 

In an era where house ownership is a distant dream for many and others are feeling the pinch on their mortgages, a two-day-old baby is now the proud owner of a $2 million home. 

But no, the bub wasn't forgoing pureed avocado toast in their first few days in order to save for a deposit, but rather they were gifted the darn thing by their grandad.

'Scuse me?!

I'm always one to massively side-eye at lavish displays of generational wealth, but GEEZ that's one hell of a birthday present. 

On top of that, the multi-millionaire newborn also received a whopping $10 million trust fund.

"Our first granddaughter and a new princess to spoil"

The financially blessed baby is the granddaughter of millionaires Barrie and Tony Drewitt-Barlow, the celebrity couple who were the UK's first gay dads, fathering twins through surrogacy.

When Barrie's daughter Saffron gave birth this week, he took to Instagram to announce the exciting news. 

He wrote, "My two princesses @saffron_db and @marinadrewittbarlowtucker_"

"My girl had a girl of her own today..."

"Tony Drewitt-Barlow and I could not be prouder of Saffron Drewitt-Barlow and Conor Tucker for producing this little princess for our family. Our first granddaughter and a new princess to spoil."

And spoil her they did.

The newborn is now the proud owner of a $2 million house and a $10 trust fund thanks to the pair. 

Speaking to The Sun, Barrie, 51, who is worth $380 million, revealed that he splashed on the luxury pad for Marina and renovations are already underway. 

"I just bought her a new house this weekend worth £1m and I’ve instructed a team of interior designers to go in and totally renovate it for her," he said. 

He added: "And as this is Tony’s first grandchild, he has set up a £5m trust fund for her, so she is already a multi-millionaire."

Barrie is no stranger to going all out with gifts and is renowned for spending around $8 million each year at Christmas on presents. 

He also reportedly gave his son Romeo a $4.7 million yacht when he was born.

"Can they adopt me?"

"How lucky is that baby! Hope she appreciates it when old enough to spend it," said one person on social media. 

"I’m 29 but can they still adopt me?" joked another. 

Then this person said: "Good on the grandparents, at least the grandchild will not have life struggles like we have, as long as they understand how lucky they are to have such thoughtful grandparents."

"I think it’s amazing it’s better than the money going to nothing why not share it with the family, I would," stated someone else.

"More than she will ever need. Let's hope she receives as much love as she has money," said someone else. 

"The entitlement this kid will have in their life..." wrote another. 

"How is this meant to teach kids you need to work to make money in life?" pointed out one comment.
