[quote=Anonymous]David and Jackie Siegel (who were featured in the 2012 documentary "The Queen of Versailles") 's daughter Victoria age 18 had died of a suspected drug overdose at their home in Florida.

I think Victoria must be Jackie's daughter from her first marriage and adopted by David because she was born in 1997 and Jackie and David met in 1998.

The Siegels were raising 8 children together - a niece Jonquil approx. age 19, 3 teen boys, 1 preteen girl, and twin girls. David, who just turned 80, has six adult children.  Jackie just turned 49.

I just watched the documentary last night.

I actually liked David and Jackie (who seems very kind and well meaning but overly interested in being "glam") but I couldn't get past their messy and disorganized house.  They are like rich hoarders.  I thought it was funny that their staff members also seemed to be hoarders.  Their main nanny's cottage was a mess and their chauffer's house was disgusting (dog poop everywhere)..David criticized Jackie's housekeeping abilities but his own den was a complete disaster.

Anyhow, the doc was filmed in the house they currently reside in and they are continuing to build their dream house - the Versailles house.

I feel sorry for them.  I think they need to simplify their lives and concentrate on their children.  Jackie admitted in the doc that she basically lets the nannies raise them although she did seem to spend time with them and attend one boy's baseball game and try to cook with daughter (who just died)..but she is a disorganized mess.

What do you all think?
