Calv’s £2.8m House Party
New home for star’s parents as they quit Scotland
Multi-millionaire DJ Harris buys a mansion in England for his mum and dad so they can be closer to their family
Superstar DJ Calvin Harris has splashed out almost £3million on a mansion for his parents.
The chart- topper’s mum Pamela and dad David have moved out of their modest family home in Dumfries after getting the keys to a sprawling fivebedroom home in Somerset.
Dance sensation Harris, 32, hit the big time 10 years ago after landing his first record deal.
Now his own company CH Music Ltd have financed a £2.8million loan to snap up his parents’ dream home.
The star – whose hits include How Deep is your Love – bought the house several months ago for Pamela, 66, and David, 75.
Former M&S shelf-stacker Calvin – real name Adam Wiles – can afford to lavish gifts on his folks after banking an estimated £70million fortune.
It’s believed his parents were keen to move down south to be closer to his siblings. Sister Sophie, who works in marketing, lives in nearby Wiltshire and IT expert brother Edward lives in Oxford.
A source said: “Calvin’s chuffed to bits to be able to splash out on a mansion for his mum and dad because they’ve supported him through thick and thin.
“It’s everyone’s dream to be able to give something back to their parents and Calvin is most def initely living the dream.
“The house is impressive but you wouldn’t expect anything less f rom a guy who wrote a song called Mansion.
“It was a bit of a wrench for David and Pamela to leave Dumfries but that’s offset by the fact they are now closer to Sophie, who has two kids.”
The 6209 sq ft modern mansion was constructed from scratch in 2008 and sits on 0.65 acres of land.
At least two of the bedrooms have lighting that resembles disco balls, ensuring the I Created Disco star will feel at home when he stays over.
Calvin – who was in Scotland last weekend to be best man at pal Mark Irving’s wedding – owns a £12million Beverly Hills compound.
He has just been crowned Forbes Magazine’s best paid DJ for the third successive year – making £ 48.6million in the last 12 months.
The magazine say the Scot picks up £ 307,000 a night for his Las Vegas sets.
He has always doted on his mum, who quit her job as an occupational therapist to become a full-time housewife and mother.
Calvin – who has worked with stars including Kylie, Rihanna and Cheryl Cole – bought a new vacuum for his mum with his first pay cheque from music.
He has joked in the past about how his parents think his job is easy after he flew them out to Las Vegas to see him in action.
He said: “My family came out. I took them to my gig at Hakkasan in the MGM. It was hilarious – my mum, my dad, my brother.
“My mum said, ‘It’s ridiculous, you get on this plane, fiddle about with the seats, joke around, play records and they pay you all this money.’
“In a nutshell, as far as the gigs go, that is it. But I wrote a few good tunes to get to that point. She likes some of my stuff.”
