Bella Hunter, the daughter of the late rock musician Marc Hunter, is a married woman.
The 33-year-old Aussie DJ, who had been based in Los Angeles for the past several years, walked down the aisle with 65-year-old American furniture salesman Gary Friedman.
Marc Hunter, who performed with the iconic New Zealand band Dragon, known for their hit songs Rain and Are You Old Enough?, died of cancer in 1998 at the age of 44. If he were alive today, he would be only four years older than his ultra-rich son-in-law.
Friedman, owner of Restoration Hardware, a popular household goods retailer, has an estimated net worth of $2 billion, according to Forbes.
The newlywed couple got married last weekend at the posh Six Senses Resort in Ibiza, with the The Sydney Morning Herald reporting ‘no expense has been spared’.
Guests included entertainment reporter Richard Wilkins and his flight attendant girlfriend Nicola Dale.

Die-hard fans of X Factor Australia would remember Bella from her stint in the 2012 season.

Bella previously told The Daily Telegraph that she wants to ‘give electronic music a feminine face’.
“There are so many male DJs,” says Bella, who recently signed with Armin van Buuren’s record label Armada Music.
