Billionaire businessman Adrian “Mr Lambo” Portelli has offered a glimpse at the extreme measures he has taken to safeguard his high-end wardrobe and luxury accessories.
The 34-year-old, known to viewers as a buyer on The Block, shared a series of Instagram Stories on Saturday showing fans through his bedroom and attached walk-in robe, where he keeps an extensive collection of designer shoes, clothing and fragrances.
During the video, the Melbourne entrepreneur said he had transformed the space into a bulletproof stronghold to give himself an added sense of security.
“Everyone asks about security at my house and such and such,” he said as he filmed inside the room.
Portelli explained that while he had already installed alarms, cameras and home monitoring, bulletproofing his bedroom was “by far” the best security upgrade he had made.
Adrian “Mr Lambo” Portelli, 34, revealed in an Instagram Story video on Saturday that he has converted his designer wardrobe area into a bulletproof bunker.
“[I] highly, highly recommend [this] if you ever want to feel super safe in your house. I had this done in my bedroom, so I pretty much turned my whole bedroom into a safe with a bulletproof door,” Portelli told his followers.
He added that the walls and windows were also being reinforced, before demonstrating the setup by closing and locking the bedroom door on camera.
Portelli made history on The Block in 2023 when he bought Steph and Gian’s house for a whopping $5million.
