Personal Life
Saadi is married to the daughter of al-Khweildi al-Hmeidi, a Libyan military commander.
A US diplomatic cable in 2009 called Saadi "the black sheep" of Muammar Gaddafi's family. It mentioned scuffles with European police, "abuse of drugs and alcohol, excessive partying" and "profligate affairs with men and women". Saadi's bisexuality had partly prompted the arrangement of his marriage to the commander's daughter, the cable said. Gay pornography was reportedly found among Saadi's possessions when his home was ransacked by looters after the fall of Tripoli.

“The shortest way out of Manchester is notoriously a bottle of Gordon’s gin; out of any businessman’s life there is the mirage of Paris; out of Paris, or mediocrity of talent and imagination, there are all the drugs, from subtle, all-conquering opium to cheating, cozening cocaine.”
