LAVISH yacht parties, dinner in fancy restaurants and shopping for designer handbags — for Jeanemarie Almulla this is just another day in her not-so-ordinary life.

But the 25-year-old, who lives in Miami, doesn’t work around the clock in a stressful job to fund her extravagant lifestyle — she bankrolls it with bags of cash from her sugar daddies, reports The Sun.

But, while she’s happy to use men for their money, Jeanemarie describes herself as a feminist and a champion of women’s rights.

She’s even written a self-help book on empowering young girls as well as working with Palestinian refugees in Lebanon and talking at Girl Scout meetings.

She explained: “When I was 15 I started competing in beauty pageants and actually won Miss City Beautiful Teen and Miss Avaloq Park Teen USA.

“They ask you to have a platform. A lot of girls chose breast cancer awareness, animal rights. I chose learning how to love yourself.

“I started this organisation called Empowering Young Girls and I write a book that I give to Girl Scouts, called Footsteps of Confidence.”

Jeanemarie, who speaks three languages and has a degree in International Relations, doesn’t see any conflict of interests between her life as a sugar baby and her work with women.

“Being a sugar baby is just knowing that you are valuable,” she said.

When she was 17, Jeanmarie was sent to live with her dad’s family in Abu Dhabi for seven months.

Forced to wear a hijab and unable to leave the country after her uncle confiscated her passport, Jeanemarie was due to marry a sheik in an arranged marriage.

She managed to escape back to the US after her mum intervened.

She said: “She flew to see me and told them she was taking me to the mall and then we left and came back to America.

“I think that really shaped who I am today. Because I was forced to cover up. It’s a symbolism of my freedom to show my skin.”

Jeanemarie was introduced to SeekingArrangement, a sugar daddy website, by a friend in 2015 after splitting from her husband.

“At first I was like, honestly I’m not going to do this, I don’t believe in it but it honestly saved my life. It sounds stupid to people but I had nothing,” she said.

“My ex-husband was a club promoter — every night he was drinking and partying. I was crying every day. I had to get out but I had no money — he controlled all the finances.

“I’d just graduated from Florida State University and I had debt up to my eyeballs and nowhere to go.

“I knew I had to get out. He was getting belligerent, he threw a TV at me — so one day I just left the house and slept in my car.

“A friend let me stay with her couple of weeks and said you need to go on SeekingArrangement — there’s no other job that you’re going to get where you can afford an apartment in Miami Beach.”

On her first date with a sugar daddy, Jeanemarie was given £800 ($1000) to “start over”.

She explained: “I realised this is one guy and there are hundreds of other guys in Miami who will find me attractive, take me out to dinner and want to help me.”

Jeanemarie believes her unconventional way of making money is smart and insists she is simply making the most of her looks and intelligence. She urges other women to do the same.

“You just have to love yourself and follow your dream. If you are sitting at that 9-5 job and you hate your life, quit it because when you do what you love, life is fun,” she said.

“I have no problem with working hard but I’d rather work smart. Men are supposed to be caregivers and take care of women.

“My friends pick me up on their jet ski and take me to their yacht parties — how could I ever work in an office after that?”

Jeanemarie is currently dating three sugar daddies and receives between 60 to 100 messages from potential suitors a day. She doesn’t care what her critics say.

“I went from being married to a guy who just used me for a green card to living on my own in a penthouse looking over the water,” she said.

“I really don’t care what people think. But what do they think? They think I’m smart. They think I’m a genius.”

She also slammed claims that sugar daddies want to hook up with young girls for sex.

“These guys don’t want sex; if they did, they would go to an escort or a prostitute. They want conversation, they want someone that they can go to dinner with,” she said.

“Why shouldn’t they help you? A lot of people confuse it with prostitution. A prostitute is someone who shows up, does a job, takes money and leaves.

“A sugar baby is nothing like that, a lot of the time sex isn’t involved, it’s not expected.

“You just have a friend who helps around and takes care of you. You go to nice dinners and you go on private planes and you go on yachts, you go to cool parties and you have awesome designer bags and it’s fun.

“I have never paid for a drink, I never will. O.P.M — other people’s money.”

Jeanemarie insists she appreciates her flashy, privileged life.

“I know what it’s like to have nothing. I have lived in my car. When I first got to Miami, I came here with nothing,” she said.

“I’ve lived in Lebanon and got to teach Palestinian refugees English for a non-government organisation. So to now be able to sit in my jacuzzi and look at the beautiful scenery, is like a dream come true.”

Meanwhile, a 20-year-old sugar baby has previously revealed she gets rich, older men to fund her studies.
