Elliott Wright, a former TOWIE star, recently announced the sale of his restaurant group in Spain, including Olivia’s La Cala in Marbella, as he prepares for a new chapter in the UK. The restaurant has been a popular spot for celebrities like Mark and Jess Wright, Ferne McCann, and ‘Arg’ Argent. Elliott, 45, shared that after 25 years in Spain, he feels it’s time for a change, citing family reasons as the driving force behind his decision.
With five children, including newborn daughter Dolly, Elliott expressed his desire for his children to join him in the restaurant business, but their plans took a different course. Two of his children are set to relocate to London for their careers, leaving Elliott and his wife, Sadie, feeling isolated from their extended family in Spain.
Despite the emotional attachment to Olivia’s La Cala, Elliott and Sadie made the difficult choice to sell their business interests in Spain and return to the UK. Elliott emphasized the sentimental value of the restaurant to him, describing it as a love story and expressing confidence in its future success under new ownership.
The sale of Olivia’s La Cala will include the beachfront property, the restaurant brand, and trademark. Interested buyers have until December 5th to submit bids starting at €5,000,000. For further details on the sale, potential bids, and inquiries, interested parties can contact Sebastian at Bromley Estates Marbella. Elliott sees this transition as an opportunity for change for himself and a chance of a lifetime for a new owner to take over one of the Costa del Sol’s renowned establishments.
