The two 'socialites' gave his deceased grandfather a lot of trouble during his life due to his continuous controversies.
Barron Hilton, the owner of the hotel empire that bears his name, passed away a few days ago at the age of 91 after a long illness. He is one of the most important tourism entrepreneurs in the world, who took the business of his father, Conrad Hilton, and turned it into a group with 2,800 hotels in nearly 80 countries. But, unfortunately, his descendants did not do the same as he did with the family business, which is why in 2007 he decided to sell it to the Blackstone Group for 23.7 billion euros.
In addition, Barron decided to leave them only 3% of his more than 1.1 billion fortune - donating 97% to his charitable foundation - and disinherit his 15 grandchildren, the offspring of his eight children. he. Because they never followed the example of his grandfather or focused on business and growing as professionals, but took advantage of the family fortune to live life... without limits. Especially two of them, the best known who gave a new meaning to the surname Hilton: Paris and her sister Nicky hers.
More Paris than Nicky, but both have been protagonists of the tabloids for years, not only in the United States, but worldwide, due to their controversial lifestyle. To the point that her grandfather even said that he was ashamed of them and their behavior. Because the two have gone around the world due to numerous scandals. Literally.
Above all, as we said, Paris, the eldest of Richard Hilton's four children. The young woman, raised in New York in the best schools and accustomed to living in mansions, wanted to stand out for herself from a young age and began to do modeling work, which kept her from studying, in addition to her controversial behavior, which made was even expelled. Friend since childhood of other famous heiresses, like Kim Kardashian-she was her best friend-or Nicole Richie, she soon made it clear that she was not going to continue the family business, because her fame was much more juicy.
In the early 2000s she did not do badly as a model, getting to do campaigns for Guess, Tommy Hilfiger and even Dior. But she soon discovered that being a 'socialite' was more profitable and fun. She tried to be an actress and singer and each appearance of hers monopolized all the 'flashes', being one of the great stars of the 2000s, but not because of her talent, but because of her particular way of being. Without mincing words and always wanting to party, Paris was the best claim anywhere.
But everything got complicated when her ex-boyfriend, Rick Solomon, published a video of the two having sex, something that was a real scandal and about which Paris has spoken years later, admitting that it was a real trauma for her, although at that time she frivolized it. . That was her descent into hell, because in 2006 she was arrested for drunk driving and, although her driver's license was temporarily withdrawn, she skipped the penalty, for which in 2007 she was sentenced to 45 days in prison, which she served.
But it seems that she was not punished, because in 2010 she was caught with cannabis first in an airport and later with cocaine in Las Vegas. The worst was in Japan, when she and Nicky were caught with this substance and denied entry into the country. In addition to this, in 2009 she had a very inappropriate behavior at the Cannes Film Festival with her former boyfriend, Doug Reinhardt, appearing so lovey-dovey in public and excited that they shocked the public and were expelled from it. She has also criticized homosexuals and has been sympathetic to Donald Trump -she began her career as a model with him-, so the blonde has given a lot. She now works as a sought-after DJ in the best clubs, such as Pachá Ibiza, where she is usually every summer.
For her part, Nicky has been much more restrained than her sister, but she was always her sidekick in parties and pranks, following her wherever she went like her older sister that she is hers. However, she has never reached her limits and, in fact, for years she has withdrawn from parties and scandals and she is the mother of two children with her second husband, the banker James Rothschild.
However, the two sisters also knew how to make their fame profitable by launching different products, both fashion and beauty, and setting up their own businesses, for which it is estimated that both have earned a lot of money in all these years. Therefore, they might even need her grandfather's inheritance. Although just in case, he wanted to teach them a lesson and teach them that money must be earned.
