Valentino Beynon, the son of Travers Beynon - best known as 'The Candyman' - has spoken out about his father and his eye-opening life in a new video:

Travers Beynon, 49, is a former Australian footballer and FreeChoice tobacco heir who lives a very lavish lifestyle.

The former footballer, who's multi-million dollar Queensland home is known as the Candy Shop Mansion, juggles spending time with his wife and four kids alongside his plethora of girlfriends - all while keeping up with a very active social life that consists of parties on yachts and traveling the world.

He also recently revealed that the secret to maintaining his youth is sex up to ten times a week and drinking up to seven litres of water a day.

And now, one of his sons, Valentino, has commented on his heavily publicised father.

On the Candy Shop Mansion YouTube channel, Valentino spoke out about his dad, saying that they're 'best mates, in a way'.

While his father often makes headlines for his debauchery, Valentino affirmed that his dad can be a 'serious person', that he can tell it how it is, while also being there for his son as a friend and teaching him life skills.

Of course, Valentino notes that there is the other side of Travers that is 'playful' and that they're always 'sh*t stirring each other', which you'd expect from the father who's PR team refer to him as "a multi-millionaire playboy, successful serial entrepreneur, husband, generous boyfriend to various women, doting father to 4 children, fitness fanatic, supercar collector and race car driver."

Valentino goes on in the video to share how his dad taught him right from wrong, noting the time when he was six and tried to take cash from his dad's till.

According to Valentino, the ordeal got him sent straight to the police station, where Travers asked the officers to arrest his son for stealing.

Travers was said to have told his son in the car to the station, 'you do the crime, you do the time'.

Makes my parents grounding me seem tame!

Still, the devoted son said he's idolised his father since he was a child and wanted to set the record straight and told of how it 'annoys' him when people claim that his dad has inherited everything he's got, explaining how he was always working when he was young.

"I saw how he worked, and how hard he did and its paid of, I mean since I was a little kid I used to dress like him, walk like him, talk like him", Valentino said.

He then added: "There's not very many normal families like us, I mean the parties dad throws, the stupid sh*t we all do. He runs a muck in the house."

However, it's not all fun and games as Travers is said to wake his kids up 'at three o'clock in the morning'.

"He's starting to wake me up even earlier now to get to work," Valentino said.

While the early start seems hard to get on board with, Valentino fully believes in the life lesson his dad taught him: "respect, trust and loyalty".
