We told you Gary was letting fame get to his head! He didn’t think about his 2-year-old daughter while dropping serious cash.
Gary Shirley is on the fast track to becoming the next Jon Gosselin! The Teen Mom star, and estranged ex-boyfriend of 20-year-old Amber Portwood, reportedly spends tons of his reality TV earnings on himself — but rarely buys presents, or even necessities, for his 2-year-old daughter Leah. “Little Leah hardly gets anything,” a source tells RadarOnline.com. “Gary spends so much money on himself, but it’s rare that he’ll buy her anything.”
The site also reports that Gary recently went on a $24,000 shopping spree, and here’s what he bought:
- $6,000 on a boys-only bachelor weekend in Miami, where big-spender Gary dropped $3,200 at VIP nightclubs.
- $5,000 on furniture
- $4,000 down on a new Dodge Charger (despite having a suspended license)
- $3,500 on an 82-inch 3D HDTV
- $3,000 on a Mac desktop computer
- $400 on a PlayStation 3
- $600 on an iPad
Please note: that list doesn’t include so much as a teddy bear for baby Leah!
