A housewife has recently gone viral on social media after she claimed her husband bought her over £3.8 million worth of gifts in just one week. Linda Andrade, 23, calls herself “the original Dubai housewife”.
She is living a glamorous lifestyle being gifted daily designer handbags and luxury cars by her multi-millionaire husband Ricky Andrade, 27. Ricky works as a crypto trader but has also invested in AI software, web hosting, and real estate.
Linda posts about her life on the TikTok account @lionlindaa, and has recently shocked users with a video claiming she has “lost count” of how much her husband spends on her in just one week.
In a video posted this week, Linda reported Ricky has spent £3.8 million on her in a week. He bought her a new £2,365,817 apartment and the pair had also gone shopping for art to decorate the new home, which cost her husband £4,580.55.
Linda also reported that she has also been treated to some brand new jewellery worth £7,634.25 as well as some cosmetic treatments worth £2,290.28.
However, for her final gift, Linda showed herself having fun out at sea and said her husband had also treated her to a brand-new yacht worth £1,068,433.
Linda’s video has over 10 million views and over 860,000 likes as people are amazed at the amount of gifts Linda has been treated to.
In the video comment section, one popular comment said: “I can’t even afford a ramen cup right now.” Another person said: “People living paycheck to paycheck in the same world as this is crazy.”
Someone else begged Linda for a reference to get a job with her husband as they wrote he “probably pays well.” Linda replied to the commentator and wrote: “Sure! He does pay really well haha.”
On her TikTok page, Linda has encouraged other women to try and seek out the lifestyle she lives by having high expectations.
In one video, Linda said: “Dating advice from the millionaire’s wife…the one time I lowered my standards for a guy I was the most depressed [I’ve ever been] in my entire life. It’s self-love to want the best for yourself.”
Linda first met her husband when she was 16 years old in California while Ricky was working as a dishwasher technician, and said that she was not looking to date a wealthy man at the time, but was looking for someone with ambition.
Linda has said she often gets asked on social media how to marry rich men. She said: “Find someone you can grow with versus the man who’s already rich.
“The rich guy will be cheap with you. But someone with hustle and ambition will treat you well, and if he ever does get into a tight place, he can get it all back because it’s within him and not just handed to him.”
In an interview with the New York Post, Linda said: “I don’t have any shame in flaunting a gold-digger aesthetic…it’s been such a long journey, and Ricky knows the truth. I can post things lightheartedly.”
