The couple has been married since 2013 and were wandering and exploring the city of Split. However, the most astounding part about this news is how much Jordan is actually spending in his place of stay.

Well, of course, the price hits for one second but then you realize, this is MJ we are talking about. The man is used to a lifestyle that is nothing less than extravagant. We’ve seen Jordan having some expensive tastes that have led him to store a plethora of cars, a watch collection, and some may even think this is over the top, but fulfilling his passion for golf by establishing an exclusive golf course.

Who is Yvette Prieto?

After MJ’s divorce from his first wife, Juanita, Jordan married Yvette Prieto, who is a Cuban-American model. Once they moved in with each other in 2009, they tied the knot a couple of years later. And just like their vacation, the ceremony was rumored to be even more expensive than this.
