Jordan Belfort's ex-wife confirms X-rated scene in Wolf of Wall Street actually happened

His ex-wife was the basis of Margot Robbie's character in the film

Jordan Belfort’s ex-wife confirmed that that X-rated scene in The Wolf of Wall Street actually happened in real life.

It’s been a whole decade since the legendary Martin Scorsese film was released, based on Belfort’s 2007 memoir.

The former stockbroker was played by Leonardo DiCaprio and the film documents his career working in New York City and the corruption and fraud of Wall Street.

At a mega three hours, the film is loaded with memorable moments from the ‘I’m not f**king leaving’ speech to the wild beach party, as well as a naked Margot Robbie and DiCaprio falling down the stairs.

Oh, and obviously a whole load of drugs, crime and sex.

But like any film based on a true story, they can often be changed up for entertainment purposes.

While much of The Wolf of Wall Street is too wild to believe Belfort's ex-wife Nadine Macaluso has confirmed at least one X-rated scene actually happened.

Nadine said the portrayal of their first meet was accurate.

Nadine is the basis of character Naomi Lapaglia, who was played by Barbie’s Robbie.

Nadine recalled meeting Belfort for the first time at one of his house parties, and said the portrayal of the introduction in the movie is quite accurate.

In a video shared on TikTok, she said: "So you guys have been asking how did I meet Jordan, the Wolf of Wall Street.

"Well, it's actually pretty similar to the movie. I was, I guess, 22 years old and modelling and my boyfriend at the time, said, 'You want to go to this party in Westhampton in this house on the beach?', and I was like, 'Sure.'

"And so we pulled up, and I remember walking into the house, and there were all these people acting really weird. Little did I know that they were all Quaaluded out, I had no idea."

You'll recall in the film that Belfort and his cronies are popping pills like there’s no tomorrow when Naomi first makes an appearance.

Nadine was not exactly pleased with the incident.

Belfort then goes to chat her up, but his efforts are overshadowed when Jonah Hill's character starts tugging himself off in sight of everyone at the party.

Apparently, this wasn't sensationalised, though Nadine's fear was downplayed in the film.

She said: "They're with their wives and they were like, just making lewd and weird comments.

"And that scene where someone actually exposes himself to me was true. And I actually got terrified by that.

"I'm 22. And I said to my boyfriend at the time, 'We have to leave this party,' and we left right away."

As for how accurate the film was as a whole, she said: "I think that if you look at it through Jordan's lens it was really accurate.

"I think that if you look at it through my lens it wasn't, and that makes sense because that was actually how our marriage was."
