How Gisele's new man dated a string of glamorous A-list stars after inheriting ... trends now

Gisele's Bündchen's new man is no stranger to dating A-list superstars and has been previously linked to Elle Macpherson, Gwyneth Paltrow and Molly Simms.

It was exclusively revealed by Dailymail.com on Thursday that Bündchen was cuddling up to billionaire Jeffrey Soffer, 55, who is a longtime friend of her ex-husband Tom Brady. 

The former husband of Elle Macpherson, who is worth $2.2 billion, is rumored to have been secretly seeing the model 'once a week' as they both live near each other on the exclusive Indian Creek neighborhood, where even Ivanka Trump resides. 

But what else is known about the billionaire, who inherited his wealth from his real estate developer father credited with turning Florida into a party playground?

Jeffrey is the son of real estate developer Donald Soffer who snapped up 785 acres of Florida swampland 

In 1967, Soffer's father Donald, now 90, bought an undeveloped plot of marshland in Miami-Dade County for $6million.

The area was originally named Turnberry - the name of the family business - but was later changed to the Spanish word Aventura, which means adventure. 

After clearing the swamp, he originally only intended to build a luxury mall,  Aventura. But after seeing the land he dreamed of building an upper-class city that was close to Miami - all of which he drew on a cocktail napkin, according to Biscayne Times. 

Donald went on to construct office buildings and condos, a golf course, a resort, and a country club on the site, building an empire and one of the most affluent municipalities in Florida. 

'Without him, there would not be a City of Aventura,' former Mayor Jeff Perlow told the Biscayne Times in 2012. 

The mall, one of best in the US, was popular before it even launched in April 1983. 

Clothing store Lord & Taylor hosted a black tie event that cost couples $1,000 to attend and raised $125,000 for Mount Sinai before the mall officially opened to shoppers, according to the Biscayne Times. 

By October, the first Macy's in South Florida opened inside the mall and other popular chains like JC Penney's and Sears followed suit.

Aventura Mall quickly outpaced nearby shopping centers and is now one of the top-grossing malls. 

The Turnberry Isle Resort was also a hit with Florida's richest and most prominent, becoming a playground for famous celebrities and high-profile people. 

'You invite celebrities, you give them free room and board, and you create a celebrity image,' Donald told the Herald in 2012. 

Of the many famous faces to have relaxed and partied at the resort, include:  OJ Simpson, Ted Kennedy, Gerald Ford, Elton John, Bill Cosby, Elizabeth Taylor, and Madonna, among others. 

But the resort became shrouded in controversy after the Herald claimed it had a drug problem and was filled with 'shady celebrities, models, drug traffickers.'

After the controversy, the family changed course and created a more family-friendly image. 

Donald also created the family business Turnberry Associates, which has developed $10billion of commercial and residential property. 

In the late 1990s, the company was passed on to his children Jeffrey and Jackie, who now are co-CEOs and co-chairs of the company. 

Jackie was put in charge of the mall, while Jeffrey was responsible for new condo developments. 

Jeffrey became the new face of the company, where he started worked at 17. The college drop-out, who once owned Champion Marine boat dealership and was into powerboat racing, helped transform the company for
