After Messy Breakup, Heiress Athina Onassis Selling Luxe Florida Mansion

Notoriously private heiress Athina Onassis, sole surviving descendant of Greek shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis, has just listed her 3,711-square-foot luxury home in Wellington, FL. Priced at $3.25 million, her home offers proximity to the well-heeled international equestrian crowd.

Sadly, the sale was likely triggered by the 31-year-old heiress’s pending divorce from Brazilian professional show jumper and two-time Olympic medalist Álvaro de Miranda Neto, known to friends as “Doda.”

The couple, who traveled in international equestrian competition circles, were married in 2005. Their breakup last spring was due to Doda reportedly being caught in a compromising position in the couple’s home.

However, there is evidence of the couple’s life together in the listing photos of the home they shared. The walk-in closet in the master suite is filled with what could be his clothes, and the office displays photos of victories at equestrian events, plus framed awards medals on the wall.

The home, which is adjacent to the Palm Beach Polo and Country Club golf course, has a pool and spa, open floor plan, and vast walls and doors of glass.

The couple reportedly bought the four-bedroom, four-bath home two years ago for close to $2 million. They then purchased two adjacent lots, for a total of $1.2 million, according to The Real Deal. What the heiress plans to do with those adjoining lots is unclear, as only the house appears to be on the market at this time.

She isn’t pulling up stakes and moving away from the posh Wellington area altogether. Onassis also owns a 5.6-acre property in Grand Prix Village, near the Winter Equestrian Festival show grounds. She paid $12 million in 2014 for the property, which includes a 20-stall barn, an all-weather ring, and accommodations for grooms, according to Palm Beach property records.
