The death of a high-profile billionaire businessman, who is now the subject of a special investigation after scores of women came forward with allegations of rape and sexual assault. A vicious power struggle between his four adult children. Reports of drug-fuelled rows and physical altercations between the siblings and their other halves.
The details surrounding Mohamed Al Fayed’s four warring offspring might read like a storyline straight out of Succession. But the true story of the Fayed children, their upbringing and their eclectic set of spouses is far stranger than any HBO fiction.
