Millionaire housewife who lives in Dubai reveals dowry gifts worth $100,000 that she demanded from husband when he proposed
A woman has gone viral after sharing the eye-watering list of expensive gifts she asked for a “dowry” when her partner proposed to her.
Linda Andrade, now 24, of Los Angeles, first met her husband, Ricky, a multimillionaire entrepreneur, at the gym when she was just 19.
Three years later he proposed to her.
But before they tied the knot, Linda revealed that she had certain financial requirements for her husband-to-be to meet.
These include her own investment property, paying out $100,000 (£78,000) as part of a ‘dowry’, seven diamond rings and a bespoke designer dress for the big day.

Her extensive list also includes monthly vacations for life and multiple housekeepers to take care of their home.
Despite now living a luxurious life in Dubai with her husband, Linda insisted that the connection the couple share is the most valuable part of their relationship.
“It was definitely love at first sight and we’ve been inseparable since the day we met,” she said.
“The gifts I asked for were things I could see myself using for a lifetime.”
The millionaire housewife admits it can be “exhausting” keeping up with the latest trends.
But for the most part, she’s happy with her decision to marry someone who’s willing to provide the millionaire home lifestyle she desires.

But before they tied the knot, Linda revealed that she had certain financial requirements that her husband-to-be had to meet, including buying seven diamond rings
She said, “The best part of the way I live is the free time and life experiences I have.
“Still, it can be very tiring to travel and shop all the time.
“But life now is better than my single life before.
‘I live with my best friend and travel the world.
“We’re young and successful and it’s fun.”
She shared several clips of her “dowry” gifts on TikTok, which have been viewed more than 10 million times, and also revealed that Ricky shouldn’t be allowed to stray elsewhere.
In addition, she demands full access to his bank accounts, a “million dollar” closet, monthly shopping in the amount of at least $21,000, 24K gold-plated cars, three mansions, and a bodyguard to protect her from would-be thieves.
Followers on Instagram were quick to share their surprise at the unusual listing, with many saying it made them question their own love interests.
One of them wrote, “I’m too shy and too scared to ask all that.”
Another added, “I asked my husband not to talk to other women and he couldn’t even do that.”
Another said: “I’d be so happy if he had a second wife if I got all that luxury.”

Linda also asks for gifts to get pregnant.
She told her followers on Instagram: “Imagine getting pregnant for a meal and not for diamonds.’
Linda has a list of things she “expects” her husband to buy her “when (she) gets pregnant” and none of them seem to be cheap.
The first thing Linda desires is a new diamond ring. Linda said she “wanted a diamond the color of the sex (of her baby)” so either a “pink or blue” colored ring.
Linda also expects new real estate as a gift, probably a new mansion and also a “new investment apartment,” she says, so she can have the space.
Linda will also have to have roses delivered “every other day” and also be treated to “spas, massages, pampering every day.”
She wants her husband to invest in taking her on dates “every night of pregnancy” and a new Rolex watch for each trimester she’s pregnant.
