Superyacht Lionheart, belonging to billionaire Philip Green, is part of his pride and worth $150 million. Joining the other sailing wildcats, the 63-meter Lioness V and the speedy Mangusta 108, named Lion Chase, is this sleek Benetti boat with a plethora of impressive features. The 295-footer sleeps 12 guests in 6 cabins serviced by a crew of 30. The exterior and build are by Benetti, but the refreshing interiors stem from the stable of Green & Mingarelli design, further refined by the personal touch of the owner’s wife, Tina Green. It is believed she is the sole owner of Lionheart and the owner of a Monaco-based interior design business with the richest Russians as clients.
There is no doubt that her own pleasure craft will be a perfect picture of a floating paradise. Unfortunately, there are no interior images of this private yacht, but one cannot miss the ample dose of greenery on all outer decks (an ode to their family name, perhaps?). It gives the 2990 GT ship an appearance of a floating garden. This zen touch can prove soothing for long-haul sojourns on the high seas. A closer inspection of images reveals an observation room/lounge on the bridge deck, a tender garage, an ample beach club, and an instantly distinguishable exterior with sinuous lines.
It also comes packed with luxurious features like three lifts, a helipad, hot tubs, and a swimming pool. The fully custom yacht that has entertained VIP guests like Cristiano Ronaldo, supermodel Kate Moss, and TV mogul Simon Cowell, per The Mirror, is powered by a diesel-electric propulsion system and boasts a cruising speed of 15 knots.
Who is billionaire Philip Green?
Green is the color of money, and for a man with Green in his name, there can only be an abundance of wealth. He boasts a net worth of $1.2 billion and runs the British retail empire Arcadia Group with his wife, Cristina Green. The company was behind well-known fashion brands like Topshop, Top Man, and Dorothy Perkins but went bankrupt in 2020. The 72-year-old college dropout started his first business at age 21, importing jeans from Asia with a $30,000 loan from his family. Of course, he turned it all around and became a billionaire who is based at a London hotel during the week and spends time at home with his family during weekends in Monaco. The tycoon also owns a £20 million Gulfstream G550 private jet and two other superyachts in addition to a fancy Monopoly set gifted by his wife featuring his own acquisitions. Talk about being filthy rich!
