The smart set’s talking about... £15bn property heir David Reuben Jr

AS THE son of property tycoon David Reuben, who boasts a £15 billion fortune with his brother Simon, David Reuben Jr is one of Britain’s most eligible bachelors.

But this week the 38year- old took himself off the market by proposing to Colombian firecracker actress Carolina Guerra, 32.

‘She didn’t say no,’ David joked as he announced the news to pals online. His fiancee declared, a tad prematurely: ‘Call me Mrs Reuben!’

Her haste to join David’s family is understandable. They own large chunks of Central London and friends include everyone from financier Nat Rothschild to pop star Justin Bieber.

David lives in Los Angeles and is an executive at a music company. Carolina, who was previously married to fellow Colombian actor Diego Cadavid, stars in the crime drama Animal Kingdom.

David — whose siblings are fund manager Jamie, 32, and jewellery designer Jordana, 39 — met Carolina at a film festival in Spain.

He is convinced she has fallen for him for all the right reasons. Sharing news of their engagement, he posted a picture of Carolina wearing a huge diamond ring, inset.

He commented: ‘When material possessions are of zero importance, who is still around?’
