Who is Mimi Morris?

Mimi Morris is a 53-year-old Vietnamese born millionaire who is all set to be a part of the 'Bling Empire' Season 2 cast. As per Netflix, Morris comes from truly humble roots, seeing that she had a tough childhood while growing up. "At the height of the war, at the age of seven, Mimi and her seven brothers and sisters were unable to flee their village to find safety, so instead spent two years living in a large hole in the ground, with scant food or water."

Her life changed when she came to the USA, seeing that some news outlets like Elite Daily reported that she started her own business and later went on to marry Donald Morris, CEO of Morris Group International, and the couple have three children. However, despite the turn her life has taken, Morris is "never lost her work ethic nor her strong survival skills in the face of adversity." And while she certainly enjoys the finer things in life, she is still as sharp as it gets. "At first blush, Mimi comes off light-hearted, witty, and joyful—but don't let her delightful demeanor fool you. Nothing gets past her." wrote Netflix.

Her Net worth

While Morris' net worth remains relatively unknown, her husband, Donald Morris is worth $800 million, as per ZGR.net. Morris is the CEO of Morris Group International "a company with 28 divisions and partnerships that manufacture specified plumbing products." The couple owns a $8.8 million home in the Strand at Headlands gated community in California, as reported by Orange County Business Journal.
