WE all love to spoil our kids at Christmas, but most of us can only dream of the lavish holidays and extravagant presents enjoyed by some of the world’s richest children.
From child millionaire business moguls to nepo babies, these kids are gifted more on one day than most of us could afford in our whole lifetimes.
Here Fabulous takes a look inside the extravagant Christmases of some of the world’s most well off under 18s…
Pixie Curtis
Pixie Curtis, 12, is a child millionaire, who shot to fame due to her fidget spinner and hair bow businesses, which were masterminded by her mother.
The tween’s mum Roxy Jacenko is the founder of the Sweaty Betty PR firm and by helping her daughter to flog products promoted on her YouTube channel, allowed the pre-teen to retire at the age of 11.
Pixie lives a life of luxury and Christmas is an especially lavish time for the affluent child.
Last year Pixie, who is originally from Australia but now lives in Singapore, jetted of to the French Alps during the festive period, before seeing in the new year with a trip to Thailand.
And the tween previously went viral, after her mum shared her extremely expensive Christmas list to Instagram.
Pixie’s list was split in to two sections, ‘expensive’ and ‘mid/cheap’ with the pricey list including a £2000 Goyard tote bag, a £100 Sommer Swim bikini and Yeezy trainers which can cost between £200 and £500.
“I’m so pleased Pixie Curtis has given options for various budgets,” Roxy said.
The Drewitt-Barlows
Multi-millionaires Barrie and Tony Drewitt-Barlow love spoiling their bumper brood of kids, and last year spent a whopping £2.8 million during the festive period.
The duo, who became the first gay couple to have a child via surrogate back in the 90s, split a few years ago, but both still treat their children to lavish gifts at Christmas.
In 2023, Saffron, 24 was treated to a Rolex, a “whole new wardrobe” and a selection of Louis Vuitton bags.
His son Aspen, 24, was also treated to a Rolex, as well as a £300,000 G-Wagon.
And his youngest child Romeo, 2, was gifted some investment property.
Barrie previously told Fabulous: “I see and hear of people losing their jobs and homes, but it has been a super record year for me and our businesses this year – so I plan to celebrate!
