The past six months have had dramatic twists and turns for James Packer following his dramatic split from Grammy winning diva Mariah Carey.
But the 50-year-old Australian casino mogul seems to have bounced back after recently enjoying the holiday season with his nearest and dearest at his jointly shared Aspen property, West Buttermilk Estate.
The billionaire confirmed with the Sydney Morning Herald that he had enjoyed the ‘best Christmas ever’ and ‘magical’ time with his three children Indigo, nine, Jackson, seven, and Emmanuelle, five, their mother and his ex wife Erica Packer, whom he shares the estate with.

The lavish property offers seven spacious bedrooms and seven bathrooms, enough to accommodate his kids, family and guests.
The home also has a state-of-the-art kitchen with an island breakfast bench and solid timber cabinetry, a medieval-style dining room and a generously sized living room with ceiling-to-floor windows looking out to the scenic hills.
But the home isn’t without its luxurious features including a theatre room, bar, steam room, a games room with a Billiard table, a cosy library filled with a large collection of books and a fire place.
