More details about Scot Young's death
Due to his widely publicized divorce from his ex-wife, Michelle, Scot Young was a prominent property developer many years back. The couple was married for 11 years, from 1995-2006.
Young was imprisoned for six months after his ex-wife allegedly convinced the court that the entrepreneur did not provide adequate information about his finances and wealth. Scot Young later reportedly started dating a TV anchor named Noelle Reno.
On December 8, 2014, Young jumped to death from his ex-girlfriend's London flat. The property developer reportedly had bipolar disorder and alcohol and drug issues at the time. BuzzFeed reported sometime in 2017 that his death had connections with the Russian government.
In the upcoming documentary, Once Upon a Time in Londongrad, viewers can expect a clearer picture of Scot Young's death and its mysterious links with the Russian state.
