THE new wife of the 91-year-old billionaire has revealed the couple were up all night during their honeymoon which could be the cause for her husband's agony.
Austrian shopping centre tycoon Richard Lugner tied the knot with actress Simone Reilaender at a star-studded ceremony in Vienna earlier this month.

He said: "After that, masseurs treated me badly and finally an osteopath.
"He turned me upside down so badly that I probably cracked a vertebra."
Lugner added: "I'm still not feeling well, but I've been home for half an hour. I really hope that things will get better soon."
Local media said that Lugner is seeing intensive care pain therapy specialist Professor Michael Zimpfer, who is giving him daily numbing injections.
The tycoon was renowned for paying out huge sums to get stars like Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton and Priscilla Presley to take his arm at swanky events.
In what was his sixth wedding, Lugner married Simone at Vienna City Hall in front of 50 guests and 20 press members.
After saying I do, Luger bantered: "Now we are chained together."
Richard's last wife was German TV presenter and former Playboy model Cathy Schmitz who is 57 years his junior.
The pair parted ways in 2016 after being married for two years.
