Sophie Monk’s $300K blowout

She’s the star who won us over with her no-holds-barred approach to love, and Sophie Monk’s all-in attitude might extend to her bank balance as well, according to a new report.

The star, who has been spending the last two months in Europe while she hosts reality show Love Island, has been living the high life with long lunches, private jet trips and designer gear.

According to New Idea, the star has let loose with some serious spending, and it’s seen her rack up a reported $300,000 bill on all the luxe things in life.

With Sophie swanning around the Spanish island of Majorca, reports say her minimal input into hosting Love Island has left her with plenty of time to splash the cash while she enjoys the European summer.

Sophie, 38, has been sharing endless snaps on social media, showing off her luxurious hotel stays, which are estimated to cost around $25,000.

Add to this long lunch dates, day trips and claims she has hired Michelle Obama’s former security and driver at a cost of $70,000, the tally is quickly rising for Sophie’s blowout summer gig.

“She hasn’t really met any of the cast,” an insider told New Idea.

“She just turns up for filming a couple of times a week and is gone again. It’s one big holiday and they treat her like a superstar. She is loving it.”

Known for her refreshing – and often hilarious – honesty, Sophie has made no secret of how much she’s swayed by the almighty dollar.

“Pay me enough, I’ll do anything,” she told Huffington Post last year.

“Literally – I’ve taken my top off for money.”

It’s an approach that’s paid off for Sophie in the past.

Last year, the Courier Mail reported Sophie pocketed $300,000 for her stint on The Bachelorette, a cool $100,000 more than her previous love-seeker, Matty J.
