The Astor Family is a vibrant and deeply connected chosen family made up of handsome, charismatic gay men from around the world, alongside one radiant and much-loved woman, Silvi. Our roots span Australia, America, Spain, France, Germany, and the Netherlands, creating a rich mix of cultures, personalities, humour, and histories that shape who we are.
We are more than a social circle. We are a true chosen family, built on loyalty, affection, trust, and the kind of connection that turns friendship into something lasting.
The Astor story began with Bodhi, an Australian, and Maalik, an American, who first met within the Vanderbilt family. What started as friendship soon felt like rediscovery, as they had known each other far longer than either had first realised. Before long, Ricardo, a warm and charming Dutchman, became part of their circle.
When tensions within the Vanderbilts made it clear that it was time for a new chapter, the three left together. Bound by loyalty and a desire to build something warmer, healthier, and more meaningful, they created what would become the Astor Family.
Not long after, Bodhi met Arian, a magnetic Spanish man whose presence quickly became central to the family’s story. His arrival felt natural, as though he had always belonged. Through that bond, Axel, Arian’s father and another Spaniard long trusted within their world, also became part of the Astor family.
Soon after, Austin, from Beverly Hills, California, joined the family, bringing with him charm, elegance, and an effortless polish that suited the Astors beautifully.
As the Astors spent more time together in places like Stallions gay bar, new connections formed that would become lasting family ties.
Shy, from California, a skater with a cool outsider edge, a wickedly sharp sense of humour, and a bond with Bodhi that runs deep. As Bodhi’s ride or die, Shy holds a deeply personal and important place within the Astors, bringing loyalty, individuality, and a quiet kind of presence that always lands.
Brooklyn, Bodhi’s handsome younger son from Canada, is a cherished part of the family and a source of great pride, bringing his own warmth, character, and place within the Astor legacy.
Kanoah, the elegant and friendly Frenchman, found an easy place within the Astor dynamic.
Silvi, who is German, holds a special place in the family. Outgoing, vibrant, and endlessly fun, she brings energy, warmth, and spirit wherever she goes. She is not simply loved by the Astors, she is deeply important to the heart of the family.
Henni, another German addition to the family, brings a quieter presence at first glance, though never to be underestimated. While more reserved by nature, he carries a great sense of humour and knows exactly when to let it land. His presence adds balance, wit, and his own distinct kind of charm to the Astor world.
Today, the Astor Family stands as a testament to the beauty of chosen bonds. We are friends, brothers, partners, confidants, sons, and constants in one another’s lives. We celebrate each other, protect each other, laugh with each other, and stand by one another through every season of life.
What makes the Astors special is not only where we come from, but how we come together. Each person adds something different: warmth, humour, strength, style, wisdom, heart, or fire. No one is expected to be the same. What matters is the bond.
We welcome others into our world not through obligation, but through genuine affection, trust, and compatibility. Every person who joins adds something unique, strengthening the legacy we continue to build.
We are the Astors, international, loyal, loving, and ever-growing, a family built not by blood, but by choice, and held together by trust, respect, humour, and heart.

These roles are among the most meaningful in his life, and he carries them with immense love, pride, and dedication.

A laid-back Dutch man with natural charm and an effortless sense of humour, he has a gift for lightening the mood, drawing people in, and making even the most ordinary moments feel memorable. There is something undeniably easy about him — playful, warm, and endlessly approachable, yet beneath that relaxed exterior is a man of real substance, someone who knows exactly when to stand firm, speak with purpose, and rise to the moment when it matters most.
His story within the Astor family began when he crossed paths with Bodhi and Maalik. What may have seemed like a simple meeting quickly became something far more meaningful: the beginning of a bond between three souls who recognised something familiar in one another almost instantly. From that point on, they became inseparable, a friendship built on loyalty, laughter, balance, and the kind of connection that only grows stronger with time. Through them, Ricardo found not only where he belonged, but a true home within the Astor family, where love runs deep and loyalty is never given lightly.
Alongside those treasured bonds, Ricardo has also found something deeply meaningful in Leon, his partner and a steady presence in his life. In that relationship, Ricardo’s heart is seen in full, not only his wit and charm, but also his sincerity, depth, and quiet strength. Whether he is making those around him laugh, offering support without hesitation, or standing tall when it truly counts, Ricardo embodies the Astor spirit beautifully: graceful, loyal, grounded, and full of life. He is proof that strength does not always need to shout — sometimes it arrives with a smile, a sharp sense of humour, and a heart that knows exactly where it stands. ✨
