A millionaire dad has defended himself after gifting his daughter over £120,000-worth of jewellery for her third birthday.
Barrie Drewitt-Barlow, a multi-millionaire businessman who's appeared on Below Deck and Rich House, Poor House, is known for splashing the cash - particularly when it comes to his family.
Not only did Drewitt-Barlow give his daughter a £200k 'push present' when she gave birth, but he also went on to gift his two-day-old grandchild a £1 million house and £5 million trust fund.
And it doesn't stop there, as the dad has since revealed what his three-year-old daughter recently received for her birthday.

Drewitt-Barlow and his partner Scott Hutchison - Drewitt-Barlow's daughter's former boyfriend - welcomed their daughter Valentina in 2020 via surrogate.
And for her third birthday - today (Tuesday, 26 September) - she certainly received a lot more than the books and teddy bears most of us were gifted at that age.
Drewitt-Barlow - who has seven mansions located across the globe - told The Sun's Fabulous: "She has had an incredible weekend of being spoiled.
"She got her first pony and a new £50k Rolex and a 50 diamond platinum bracelet worth £70k and a whole new wardrobe of clothes for our trip to Miami next week.
"What else would you get for her third birthday?"
And as if the presents weren't enough already, Drewitt-Barlow and Hutchison also threw Valentina a Peppa Pig themed party for her and her friends.
But don't worry, the present-giving is a two-way street, Drewitt-Barlow revealing he received a diamond Tiffany bracelet from Valentina on Father's Day earlier this year. His other children bought him a Tiffany necklace as well as a new 'upgraded' Mercedes.
And he also treats his other children, admitting he spends £4 million on them every Christmas - last year buying his and Hutchison's youngest, Romeo, a £475,000 Rolls Royce Cullinan to take him to nursery.
Although the dad notes for Valentina it's 'Christmas day every day'. In a previous interview with Fabulous he said: "She gets what she wants when she wants it.
"She has a personal chef, a whole play room full of the latest gadgets and toys, full time live-in nanny and a team of house staff that take care of her every need, including a full time hair stylist that styles her hair every day.
"She is the ultimate daddys' girl, a total Princess."
