Touker's net worth is £150 million according to Spear's magazine and much of this money was made in the fashion industry.

At five years old he moved from Famagusta to the UK and was unable to speak English and went on to train as an accountant.

After realising the value of the fashion industry while in accounting Touker formed Kingsland Models which supplied clothing to big brands like Dorothy Perkins and Top Shop.

Since then Touker joined and owned other clothing suppliers and manufacturers, with his most recent being the fashion label Ghost.

The 68-year-old businessman currently lives in London and has two daughters.
