Linda Andrade has a life most of us can only dream of. The 24-year-old currently lives in Dubai with her multimillionaire husband Ricky Andrade, who made his riches as a cryptocurrency trader. The couple met when Linda was just 16-years-old and Ricky was working as a dishwater technician. Now, the California native spends her days shopping for designer handbags and documenting her life on TikTok. And her latest video has caused quite a stir among her followers. She has titled the clip, ‘Worst things about being with a millionaire in Dubai’ – and her complaints include ‘only’ having an allowance of £82,250 a month. Linda can be seen at the start of her post standing in front of a Tiffany & Co store before it changes to show her next to a pet cheetah resting against a sofa, as she wrote: “His fave animals are exotic and scary.” Linda then shared screengrabs of some of the messages she has had from friends – one of which reads, “Can I have $700,000?” “Everyone’s always asking me for money,” she notes. The influencer is next seen at the spa, wrapped up in a fluffy white towel while eating and drinking from a small tray. “I’m so stressed I have to go to the spa,” Linda wrote. She can then be seen sipping on cocktails and eating from plates of sushi – “Getting fat from the food” – before cutting to her husband, which she captioned: “He’s too busy for me.” Finally, Linda can be seen holding up a beautiful diamond snake bracelet, as she addresses her spending. “He’s in charge of my allowance and right now it’s only $100k [£82,250] a month,” she states. Unsurprisingly, the post has elicited a lot of comments on TikTok. “Can I have some of your problems?!” one viewer joked, while a second noted: “My fam is so broke we have 48$ on our bank account no joke!” A third added: “Such a hard life…” Others commented on her relationship with her husband with one telling Linda: “Having time for you is the greatest gift. All the stuff in the world does not make up for time.” Another echoed: “The ‘he’s too busy for me’ would be it for me, regardless of the lifestyle he provides.” Earlier this year, Linda went viral after sharing the eye-watering list of expensive presents she asked for a ‘dowry’ when her husband Ricky proposed. These included her own investment property, paying out $100,000 (£78,000) as part of a ‘dowry’, seven diamond rings, and a custom designer dress for the big day. Sharing several clips of her ‘dowry’ presents on TikTok, she also revealed that Ricky is not allowed to stray elsewhere. Additionally, she demands full access to his bank accounts, a ‘million dollar’ closet, monthly shopping sprees to the tune of at least $21,000, 24-karat gold-plated cars, three mansions and a bodyguard to protect her from potential thieves.
