He might be unemployed, but he’s enjoying a jet-set lifestyle of designer clothes, five-star holidays and a £2,000-a-month cash allowance – and it’s all thanks to his wealthy divorced sugar daddy.
Edward Oliver, 24, from London, has been in a relationship with his benefactor for two years – and has even had his student debt wiped out following his marketing degree at Kingston University.
He insists he has a long-term friendship and financial agreement with the 56-year-old father-of-one - who also pays his rent - and whenever they go on holiday Mr Oliver insists on separate bedrooms.
Mr Oliver said: ‘This is my longest sugar daddy relationship so far - we started off seeing each other once a week, but once he ended another relationship we spent more and more time together.
‘I think at first he was looking for a sexual relationship, but as we got to know each other it became very much platonic. I’m unemployed, but I do sort of look at my relationship as a job.
‘I sometimes help out in my sugar daddy’s property development business, and it can be quite stressful having to put on a front all the time to keep him happy.
‘In return though I get my rent paid, a £2,000 cash allowance, regular holidays that last up to a month at a time all round the world, five-star accommodation and luxury travel.’
He met his sugar daddy on Seeking Arrangement, a dating website specialising in sugar baby relationships.
Same as a wife being kept in a typical hetero relationship, like a housewife...no big deal
I had a similar deal offered to me but I couldn't stomach being with someone 30+ years older than me for the long run
I’m unemployed, but I do sort of look at my relationship as a job.
kii so sad and pathetic, he better start looking for a real job before his sugar daddy leaves him for someone younger and more attractive (this one's not gonna be hard)
