Michelle Mone & billionaire hubby launch 80m sale of luxury villa, jet & yacht after accounts froz
MICHELLE Mone and her billionaire husband Doug Barrowman are selling their luxury house, private jet and superyacht worth £80m at slashed prices.
Baroness Mone had her bank accounts frozen by the National Crime Agency amid a probe into the PPE firm MedPro.
The NCA is said to be investigating claims of fraud and bribery surrounding PPE Medpro.
The firm, run by Barrowman, got more than £200 million in government contracts during the pandemic.
It was reported the bra tycoon discovered the freeze on her accounts when her card was declined at a petrol station just before Christmas.
Tory peer Mone and Barrowman are now flogging luxury items for millions.

A six-bedroom villa on the Caribbean island of St Barthelemy belonging to Barrowman has been on the market since 2021 but the price tag has been slashed from £63m to £41m, the Daily Record reports.
Barrowman's luxury yacht, the Lady M, has been up for grabs for over a year.
But the 39-metre vessel is now on sale for a reduced price of just under £7million.
The megarich couple are also understood to have sold their £7.5m Cessna private jet, a £7million villa in Portugal's Algarve and their London townhouse for £19million.

A spokesperson for Barrowman told The Daily Record: “The media’s ridiculous obsession with every tiny detail of Michelle and Doug’s personal life continues to reach desperate levels.
"They have both been very successful in business for decades, so if they plan to write about every asset that they own, might be buying or could be selling, journalists would be writing for a very long time.
"This is a futile attempt to distract from Doug Barrowman’s robust fightback against the PPE Medpro allegations over the last few weeks.”
Last month, we told how Baroness Mone owned up to personally benefitting from a £200m PPE contract after lying to the press for months about her involvement.
In an interview with the BBC, Baroness Mone admitted she had lied about her links to PPE firm Medpro, but insisted that she and her husband have "no case to answer".
Lady Mone insisted that lying to the media is "not a crime", but that it had been an “error”.
