After two decades of construction, Jackie Siegel, star of the documentary 'The Queen of Versailles', provides an Instagram update on the progress of her massive Florida mansion. Despite setbacks due to the 2008 financial crisis, Siegel assures followers that the 14-bedroom, 30-bathroom palace is nearing completion.
Have YOU got a story? EmailJackie Siegel, the eponymous star of the popular documentary The Queen Of Versailles, is giving her followers an update on the status of her megamansion over two decades after construction began.
Florida's Versailles, which named after the French palace, features an incredible 14 bedrooms and 30 bathrooms, and it is one of the most expensive homes in the United States. 'Well, I'm over at Versailles and we're getting closer,' Siegel announced at the start of the video, which she filmed herself.
The rectangular hall was decorated with multiple balconies that would have been ideal for looking down at a party. 'Well, I'm over at Versailles and we're getting closer. We're getting closer to getting done,' she said. The view of the grand ballroom showed scaffolding and construction supplies strewn all over the floor
Down on the floor, long strips of painters trip rain from end to end, and crates, scaffolding and other bits of construction debris were scattered haphazardly.
The film, which was directed by Lauren Greenfield, was a hit with critics, who praised it for balancing its critiques of the Siegels' wealth with sympathetic portrayals of the couple as they struggled to reign in their spending as the economy cratered. The megamansion was said to be approaching completion in 2016, 2020 and 2023, but so far it is still being worked on; pictured in 2012
