Inside Deborah Meaden's life - split from husband, lavish mansion and huge net worth
BBC dragon Deborah is a fan favourite on the big money investment programme and has been a Dragon since 2003, after taking over from Rachel Elnaugh on the third series.The businesswoman is one of the wealthy investors on the BBC show and has amassed a mega fortune through years of savvy business decisions, but what else do we know about her?From her 10-bedroom Somerset mansion with a whole farmyard work of pets to a whopping net worth, let's take a closer look...Somerset-born Deborah married long-term boyfriend Paul in 1993 and they live in her home county.The couple met in 1985 when he was working at her former holiday company Weststar during his university break.However, things weren't always rosy as they split briefly due to Deborah not wanting a family with him.She then took a trip to Venezuela, but on her return to London came back and married him.In a 2011 interview with the Telegraph, Deborah revealed that she never does any housework because her husband is in charge of "domestic chores."The Dragon’s Den has a seriously impressive house - a 10-bedroom mansion in fact.After selling her Weststar Holidays company for £33m back in 2006, the couple bought the lavish property in Somerset to have a calm life in the countryside. Since the move, the couple have been constantly renovating their home, using period-accurate materials - which is a factor to environmentalist Deborah’s heart.At the time they bought the property, Deborah said: "We have done it up in an ethical way, restoring whatever we can using traditional materials."That has cost us at least twice as much as it needed to.
