Inside the love life of Aussie playboy billionaire after he split from his wife – as he lives it up with a string of glamorous younger girlfriends

The Australian billionaire behind an online gaming company is turning heads on the French Riviera along with a bevy of beauties after his marriage split.

Laurence Escalante is quickly earning a reputation as a ladies’ man after attending the Cannes Film Festival with OnlyFans ‘creator’ Corinna Kopf.

It is believed he wooed Ms Kopf by offering to fly her from the US to Perth to view his car collection – and his bold move appears to have worked his charm.

Mr. Escalante, 42, is the founder of one of the country’s largest private companies, Virtual Gaming Worlds (VGW), which operates the wildly popular Chumba Casino app that allows players to experience the thrill of slots without spending real money.

Customers at the virtual ‘Chumba Casino’ can play games like poker, bingo and slots without parting with their hard-earned money – although gamers do have the option to purchase virtual currency to play with if they wish.

Thanks to the success of his pseudo-gambling empire, Escalante is one of the country’s youngest billionaires with an estimated fortune of $3.9 billion, according to the Australian Financial Review.

Ms. Kopf, 28, is an American OnlyFans model known for being the ex-girlfriend of YouTuber turned WWE superstar Logan Paul.

According to a well-placed source, the pair met on social media and billionaire Ms Kopf flew to Perth to view his extensive car collection.

The two were spotted soaking up the French Riviera sun in Cannes and Monaco last week with fellow Australian Rich-Lister James Packer.

Since divorcing his wife and mother of his four children, Sarita Escalante, in 2018, Mr. Escalante has been linked to a number of women.

Escalante had a long-term relationship with Perth lawyer Sian Whyte after his marriage ended, with the pair sharing loved-up photos together on social media.

They quietly split in 2022 and he moved on with Erin Snape, who is believed to be an acquaintance of Ms Whyte.

But she too disappeared from his Instagram in recent weeks and he was soon spotted with a string of young women, including Perth model Jacinta Constantine.

Ms Constantine was spotted at his side at the Melbourne Grand Prix in March. The two later also traveled to Japan for a vacation.

In 2022, Escalante joined the ranks of Australia’s richest peoplewith an estimated net worth of $2.15 billion.

Mr. Escalante, known for documenting his lavish lifestyle on social media, is not afraid to spend his money and regularly shows off his expensive toys on Instagram, including a Lamborghini Tecnomar 63 yacht and a Bombardier private jet.

He is also passionate about fast cars and has invested in a car modification company, Beyond Custom, and a training and coaching company, Arise Racing.

He is said to own Australia’s largest private supercar and ‘hypercar’ collection and has signed a sponsorship deal with the Ferrari F1 racing team.

Last year, two of his Lamborghini Aventador Ultimaes were involved in an accident by Crown valet staff in Perth.

The two supercars, each worth $1 million, are the latest version of the Italian automaker’s popular Aventador model, but they are just two of the many expensive items the billionaire owns.

Although he now lives a luxurious lifestyle and regularly sails superyachts from the beautiful beaches of Western Australia, the businessman comes from humble beginnings, having started his professional life making burgers at Hungry Jack’s.

But as his partying and spending increases, investors are increasingly concerned that Virtual Gaming Worlds may never go public.

Some investors were unhappy with Escalante’s decision, announced last March, to sponsor the Ferrari F1 team.

They argued that it was based more on his personal passions than on increasing OSH recognition in the US, a claim disputed by Mr Escalante.
