  • The BMW-loving daughter of billionaire Michael Bloomberg went to a prep school that The CW’s Gossip Girl took inspiration from, before attending NYU à la Blair Waldorf
  • Rather than joining politics or finance like her dad, Georgina – now a mum of one – is a decorated equestrian and published author, who can be spotted at glitzy events like the 2022 Met Gala

When HBO’s Succession TV series was released in 2018, it gave viewers an insight into the fictional lives of the ultra-wealthy Logan family, which controls the biggest media company on the planet. Reports suggest that it’s loosely based on the Murdochs, but whoever the show is based on, it’s given viewers a glimpse into the world of New York politics, media mogul jostling and the not-always-easy lives of the children of the city’s most prominent figures.

Michael Bloomberg is just such a figure – considered one of the most influential people in the media, he’s accumulated a US$76 billion net worth since co-founding financial information and media company Bloomberg in 1981, per Forbes.

He’s also a former New York mayor who ran as a presidential candidate back in 2020 against Donald Trump – a rivalry that The Guardian later described as “fierce”, and calling them “mortal enemies”.

But for Bloomberg’s daughter, Georgina, taking over the media company or joining politics doesn’t seem to be on the cards – at least not for now, anyway. The lesser-known heiress recently made headlines for taking People magazine behind the scenes of her preparations for the Humane Society’s annual To the Rescue! Gala, for whom she serves as a co-chair.

So, what else do we know about the 39-year-old?
