I built a private jet cabin in my living room — I love to sit inside and eat caviar (2024)

She’s a real jet-sitter.

Jackie Siegel, a popular TikToker who refers to herself as “The Real Queen of Versailles”— in reference to the ostentatious mansion she and husband David Siegel built in Windermere, Florida — has gone viral with her latest video.

Siegel, 57, attracted over 1.3 million viewers to a post of herself noshing on caviar inside a reproduction of a private jet passenger cabin built into her living room, The Sun reported.

“Have you ever had one of those days when you’re in the mood for caviar, but you feel like, ‘Oh my gosh, I should be on a private jet eating caviar, but I don’t want to leave my home?’” Siegel asks her audience.

“So, I got the solution for that. I got the private jet experience here in my living room so I can enjoy my caviar first-class, exclusively here,” she says.

Some of her followers applauded her display of extravagance.

‘Yes I feel this all the time. Need to get one of these for my living room,” someone wrote.

“You know what, Jackie, I was just thinking this morning how I want caviar but I don’t want to be on a jet!!! Wow, the algorithm really said FOR YOU!!” joked another.

Others thought the model’s post was “out of touch” at a time when many others are struggling financially.

“It’s giving Hunger Games District 1,” said one commenter.

“Do you ever have one of those days where you don’t know how you gonna make rent?,” another chimed in.

“No, Jackie … BUT I was first in line at the food bank today so I got meat 😍” said a third.

Siegel’s plane-cabin reproduction is only one of many fripperies on the property.

The home also features a British pub that has a vintage bar and a phone box from London as well as a 35-car garage and a 150-person dining room.

Siegel and her billionaire husband, the CEO and founder of timeshare company Westgate, began work on now-90,000-square-foot Versailles in 2004, naming it after the historic French royal palace and announcing their aim to build America’s largest single-family home.

They were the subjects of the 2012 documentary “The Queen of Versailles” which detailed the family’s attempt to continue work on the gargantuan residence during the 2008 economic recession, which saw David’s company struggle.

They ultimately had to stop construction and live on less than they were accustomed to, along with their eight children. They tried to sell their home but ultimately failed.

The Siegels recently appeared on the Discovery+ show “Queen of Versailles Reigns Again,” featuring the sprawling home, which Siegel estimates is worth around $200 million.

Despite their luxe lifestyles, the Siegels have experienced their share of tragedy in the past.

They lost their daughter Victoria in 2015 to a drug overdose and have a shrine dedicated to her in the home.

The family also installed a butterfly design on their ballroom floor, inspired by the moment one of the colorful insects landed on Victoria’s coffin.
