Fans of SoulCycle and Equinox are threatening to withdraw their memberships in protest
Photo: The Washington Post/Getty Images Stephen Ross, owner of the Miami Dolphins and chairman of the Related Companies, which includes cult fitness brands SoulCycle and Equinox, is scheduled to throw an extravagant fund-raiser for President Trump’s 2020 reelection campaign on Friday, the Washington Post reports. Tickets for his Hamptons luncheon begin at $100,000 for lunch and a photo opportunity with the president.
SoulCycle and Equinox are just two of Ross’s many ventures. As Eater noted back in October, the billionaire’s investment firm, RSE Venture, has financed David Chang’s Momofuku, dessert bar Milk Bar, reservation service Resy, coffee shop Bluestone Lane, and pizza shop &pizza. The billionaire was even called out by one of the players on his own team, the Dolphins. In a tweet, wide receiver Kenny Stills posted a screenshot of Ross’s nonprofit, RISE, which says it is a “national nonprofit that educates and empowers the sports community to eliminate racial discrimination, champion social justice and improve race relations.”
