George Soros' five-decades-younger ex-girlfriend is suing because he failed to deliver the goods



In this case, 'the goods' was a $1.9 million Manhattan apartment. With all the money Soros has, she should be insulted by the offer to settle her lawsuit for a measly $250,000.

Billionaire George Soros was so eager to stop his ex-gal pal from filing a lawsuit, he offered her cousin $250,000 to persuade her to drop the case, the Daily News has learned.

The cousin says the offer was a bribe; Soros’ lawyer says it was merely an attempt to settle the dispute.

Former Brazilian soap star Adriana Ferreyr, 31, sued Soros, 81, in August after he reneged on a promise to buy her a $1.9 million Manhattan apartment.

The $50 million suit also contained claims of emotional torture, harassment and violence — all denied by the twice-divorced Soros.

When she threatened to take him to court, Soros went to her cousin Mauricio Carneiro, a lawyer, with a cash offer.

“Pursuant to your conversation with George Soros . . . I understand you may wish to be helpful with the situation,” the billionaire’s lawyer William Zabel wrote to Carneiro in an email seen by The News.
