Semie Atadja, a New Jersey native, proudly embraces her role as a sugar baby despite being labeled a gold digger due to her relationship with a man 36 years her senior, Claudio Spilatro. Their unique connection blossomed on Seeking Arrangements, a platform catering to individuals seeking unconventional relationships.
Semie Atadja is unapologetic about her identity as a sugar baby, dismissing hurtful labels like “gold digger.” She boldly asserts that the significant age gap of 60 years between her and Claudio Spilatro doesn’t concern her. Their relationship, as she puts it, involves mutual benefit, where her partner appreciates her youthful energy, and she enjoys the perks of his substantial financial status.
In a recent installment of the YouTube show “Love Don’t Judge,” Semie openly stated, “We use each other.” She shared insights into their lifestyle, showcasing her lavish closet filled with high-end items like Birkin bags, Chanel handbags, Gucci shades, and Cartier accessories. To her, the term “gold digger” isn’t an insult but a reflection of her pursuit of a better life.
Semie humorously remarked, “Of course, we’re all gold diggers. No one’s out there digging for pebbles. If I’m going to dig for something, it’s not going to be for dirt, it’s going to be for gold.”
Claudio Spilatro, her wealthy partner, expressed his enjoyment in taking Semie on shopping sprees to upscale boutiques and mentioned their shared travels. He acknowledged the age gap, with Semie being younger than his daughters, who are almost a decade older than her. Their relationship began when Semie was just 18, a fact that initially surprised his daughters but one they eventually came to terms with.
In ‘Love Don’t Judge,’ Claudio revealed he has two daughters, aged 33 and 34, who have grown fond of Semie over time. He affectionately refers to Semie as “my grandkids,” highlighting the unique bond they share.
Despite the critics and judgments that often come with age gap relationships, Semie and Claudio’s six-year relationship has endured, and they are considering marriage. Semie Atadja’s message to others in similar situations is clear: “Be unapologetically yourself and show them exactly why their judgment is wrong.”
