亿万富翁、投资家乔治•索罗斯上周六庆祝82岁生日时，宣布将迎娶比自己年轻很多的女友多美子-博尔顿。
索罗斯与博尔顿于2008年春天相识。据与索罗斯相熟人士的消息，二人近日在纽约南安普敦避暑寓所举行生日派对时，向出席的少数亲友公布了订婚喜讯。
几周前，在某个周末的汉普顿之旅时，索罗斯向40岁的博尔顿求婚。纽约的富豪们经常到海边度假胜地长岛汉普顿游玩。
这是索罗斯的第三次婚姻，也是博尔顿的第二次婚姻。博尔顿在上世纪90年代有过一段短暂婚史。索罗斯之前有五名子女。
去年，索罗斯的前女友阿德里安娜•费雷拉控告索罗斯违反承诺，没有送她一套公寓。索罗斯正申请停止诉讼。费雷拉是巴西的一名肥皂剧女星。
费雷拉的律师罗伯特-亨特曼说：“我祝他婚姻幸福，现在看来他不需要这套公寓了，希望案子能尽快了结。”
索罗斯积极支持政治自由主义，频繁发表有关全球经济事件的言论。他在2011年将旗下对冲基金转作家族基金，也不再为外部投资者进行资金管理。
20年前，索罗斯向英格兰银行发起了挑战，精明地押注英镑贬值，攫取了巨额财富，也因此声名大振。这在现今来看也堪称历史上很著名的一次交易行为。
博尔顿拥有迈阿密大学商科硕士学位，曾在网上销售膳食补充剂，现在经营一家网络瑜伽培训机构。
据索罗斯身边的人传出消息，订婚戒指是一枚格拉夫钻戒，钻石镶在白金戒托上，戒圈为玫瑰金。
Billionaire investor George Soros had a lot to celebrate on Saturday evening: his 82nd birthday and the engagement to his much younger girlfriend, Tamiko Bolton.
Soros and Bolton, who met in the spring of 2008, formally announced their engagement at a party at Soros’ summer home in Southampton, New York, attended by a small group of friends and relatives, according to a person familiar with the investor.
Soros proposed to Bolton, 40, a few weeks ago during a weekend visit to the Hamptons, a beachside colony on Long Island frequented by New York’s wealthy.
For Soros, this will be his third marriage and the second for Bolton, who was married briefly in the 1990s. Soros has five children from his previous marriages.
Last year, Adriana Ferreyr, a former girlfriend of Soros, filed a lawsuit alleging he had reneged on a promise to buy her an apartment. Soros has filed a pending motion to dismiss the suit by the former Brazilian soap opera star.
Ferreyr’s attorney, Robert Hantman, said: "I wish him the best of luck on his marriage, and now that he doesn’t need the apartment, hopefully the case can be resolved."
Soros, who is an active contributor to politically liberal causes and frequently speaks on world economic events, converted his hedge fund into a family office in 2011 and stopped managing money f
for outside investors.
Soros rose to fame and fortune two decades ago on a now-historic trade, in which he took on the Bank of England and shrewdly wagered on a devaluation of the British pound.
Bolton, who once started an Internet-based dietary supplement business and is now running a web-based yoga education business, has a master’s degree in business from the University of Miami.
The engagement ring Soros gave Bolton, according to a person close to him, is a Graff diamond in a platinum setting on a rose gold band.
