Geoffrey Edelsten appeared to lead a very lavish life. But following his shock death at age 78, the physician-turned millionaire businessman’s ex-wife Brynne tells New Idea he was nothing like his eclectic public persona behind closed doors.
On June 11, Geoffrey’s body was found in his Melbourne apartment by his cleaner. Brynne, 38, says she was “really shocked” to learn of his passing.
“I just hope he had someone by his side or went in his sleep,” the sombre star tells New Idea exclusively.
Geoffrey’s high-profile romances, beginning with his first wife Leanne Nesbitt, made him a household name. But it was his MayDecember relationship with Brynne that really cemented the one-time Sydney Swans owner as a tabloid fixture.
The pair first met in LA, where US-born Brynne was working as a fitness instructor. They tied the knot in a $3.3 million ceremony at Melbourne’s Crown Casino. Geoffrey was 66, while Brynne was just 26.
Hollywood stars like Fran Drescher and Jason Alexander were among the celebrity guests Brynne admits were compensated to attend. But she rubbishes recent reports that Geoffrey organised prepaid attendances for his funeral.
