Brandon Davis<\/strong> popped the question to\u00a0Ashley Benson<\/strong><\/a> on July 6, and now, the two are officially engaged<\/a>! Long before he was with the\u00a0Pretty Little Liars<\/em> star, though, Brandon was already making headlines with some other famous faces.\u00a0During the later aughts, the socialist and oil heir was frequently spotted alongside some of the biggest names in entertainment.<\/p>\n From partying with Paris Hilton<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>to feuding with\u00a0Lindsay Lohan<\/strong><\/a>, many knew exactly who he was back then. However, in recent years, Brandon was able to live a life mostly out of the spotlight, until he was first linked to Ashley at the beginning of 2023. Learn more about him here.<\/p>\n Brandon has been in the tabloids for much of his life, and it’s no surprise since he’s the heir to an oil fortune. The New York state native is the grandson of the late industrialist\u00a0Marvin H. Davis<\/strong>, who died in 2004. During his life Marvin was so successful that even once owned 20th Century Fox! Some of the other major companies and brands Marvin acquired included Davis Petroleum, the Pebble Beach Corporation, the Beverly Hills Hotel, and the Aspen Skiing Company. At the end of his life Brandon’s grandfather had built a massive $6 billion fortune, per\u00a0Celebrity Net Worth<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n The 43-year-old, however, is not the only Davis heir, as he has a total of four siblings<\/a> including: Isabella Rickel<\/strong>, Mariella Rickel<\/strong>, the late Jason Davis<\/strong>, and Alexander Davis<\/strong>. His parents are\u00a0Nancy Davis Rickel\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Nebil Zarif<\/strong>. In addition, some of his other noteworthy family members include his film producer uncle\u00a0John Davis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Aside from his wealthy upbringing, Brandon went on to date other successful people in his life, including\u00a0The O.C.\u00a0<\/em>alum\u00a0Mischa Barton<\/strong><\/a>, 37. The former couple dated for over one year but called it quits by July 2005, as previously reported by\u00a0PEOPLE<\/em><\/a>. \u201cThey are no longer together but they remain close friends,” the blonde beauty’s rep told the outlet at the time. During their breakup<\/a>, Brandon sent his “best” to Mischa via his rep. Although Mischa’s current relationship status remains vague, she was last romantically linked to Gian Marco Flamini\u00a0<\/b>during spring 2021, per\u00a0The Daily Mail<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n The wealthy air first made headlines for his romance with Ashley Benson in January 2023 when they attended a basketball game together. Shortly after that, their romantic relationship was confirmed.\u00a0 “They have a lot of mutual friends and are both super fun and very social people,” an insider claimed to PEOPLE<\/em> <\/a>on Feb. 3, 2023.<\/p>\n The confirmation of their fling camae just two days after they were spotted on a double date alongside Scream Queens\u00a0<\/em>alum\u00a0Emma Roberts<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>and her beau,\u00a0Cody John<\/strong><\/a>, per\u00a0Just Jared<\/em><\/a>. Prior to this romance, Ashley split<\/a> from rapper\u00a0G-Eazy<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>in Feb. 2021, following a two-year romance<\/a> with model\u00a0Cara Delevigne<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n Brandon was known as a partier during his younger years, as he was often spotted galivanting with now-DJ Paris Hilton. One of the most known feuds that Brandon is known for was for when he threw major shade at Mean Girls<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>star Lindsay Lohan in 2006. While leaving a night club with Paris and her sister,\u00a0Nicky Hilton<\/strong><\/a>, Brandon shouted that Lindsay had a “fire cr****” and said that she “c***** freckles.” While Brandon ranted about Lindsay, Paris laughed and pretended to be on her cellphone seemingly embarrassed by her then-friend’s remarks (watch the clip here<\/a>).<\/p>\n![\"brandon](\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Brandon-Davis-Ashley-Benson-dating-shutter-embed-1.jpg?resize=620%2C846\")
