When did Tamiko Bolton get married to George Soros?

Soros and Bolton met in the Spring of 2008 and started dating shortly afterwards; their engagement was announced formally in August 2012 at a party in one of the summer homes of Soros in Southampton, surrounded by their closest family and friends. Bolton was 40 years old at the time of the engagement while Soros was 82 years old, so their age gap of over 40 years was much talked about in the media.

They were married on 21 September 2013 in a small ceremony at Soros’s Bedford, New York estate; Bolton’s dress was designed by Reem Acra, a Lebanon-born fashion designer. The wedding was officiated by Federal Judge Kimba Wood and was attended by the close friends and family of the couple including the five children of Soros. The small ceremony was followed by a large reception for over 500 guests at a Westchester County complex called Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts. There were plenty of distinguished guests, including powerful political figures such as Nancy Pelosi and Gavin Newsom. There was a second reception with 300 guests held at the Museum of Modern Art in Manhattan.

Scandals and Controversies related to Tamiko Bolton

In 2011, Bolton came into the middle of a highly publicized $50 million lawsuit filed against Soros by his previous partner Adriana Ferreyr, who accused Soros of fraud, harassment, emotional distress and also assault. She also claimed that Soros had promised to give her a Manhattan apartment worth $1.9 million, which he later gifted to Bolton. The attempts by Soros to dismiss the lawsuit were unsuccessful, and during the course of the hearing, Ferreyr began physically violent and attacked Soros and his lawyers. In 2013, Soros filed a lawsuit against Ferreyr for defamation and assault. After Soros’s marriage to Bolton, Ferreyr expected Soros to give her the apartment since Bolton no longer used it but Soros has donated most of his assets including the apartment to charities.

The exact net worth of this Japanese-American entrepreneur is unknown, as she is linked with her husband George Soros. As of February 2019, he has a net worth of up to $20 billion according to Forbes, but having already donated over $32 billion to charitable causes. Bolton had a few steady businesses related to health and wellness before her marriage to the billionaire, so she is very likely financially comfortable in her own right.
