18 year old Victoria Siegel was found unresponsive by sheriff's deputies at the Seagull Island mansion on Green Island Cove just after 2 p.m. on Saturday and performed CPR on Siegel. She was discovered by the family housekeeper and was rushed to Health Central Hospital in Ocoee, where she was pronounced dead.
The family and their extravagant lifestyle gained international attention after the release of the 2012 documentary The Queen Of Versailles. Investigators are working with the medical examiner to determine cause and manner of death, but it is rumoured that she died of a drug overdose.
'The victim's father has informed investigators
that he will be making a statement in the coming days regarding the
death of his daughter, and is requesting privacy at this time,' said
Orange County Sheriff spokesman Jeff Williamson.
David Siegel, 80, is the billionaire founder of the timeshare company Westgate Resorts.
He and his wife Jackie gained fame and notoriety after the 2012 release
of the documentary Queen Of Versailles which followed their attempts to
build the self-proclaimed 'largest home in America'.
They started the project in 2004 but it was stalled after David's
business was hit by the failing economy, construction is back on and the
sprawls 90,000ft and is expected to be complete by 2016.
It has been valued from anywhere between $65 million to $75 million.
Jackie Siegel recently appeared on Celebrity Wife Swap and admitted she
doesn't spend much time with her kids and leave them to be looked after
by her large staff. The 18 year is the 2nd oldest of the couple's 8
children.
