Personal Life
Max is married to American model Ame Austin (born 1976).
The couple are regarded as architectural connoisseurs, and have previously lived in a Greene and Greene house, as well as one designed by modernist American architect Richard Neutra. They are currently awaiting the planning permission on a 11,500 sq ft (1,070 m2) futuristic cliff side home at Malibu.
In 2005, the couple bought Easton Neston in Northamptonshire, England from Lord Hesketh for £15 million. They converted the 10,000 sq ft (1,000 m2) of the fire damaged Wren wing of the house (mistakeny attributed to Christopher Wren), plus the out buildings which were the home of defunct Formula One team Hesketh Racing into their European business base. The remaining main house become their English country home for six months of the year, where they had been welcomed by a gift from Lord Hesketh — a bottle of vodka.
