FOXBOROUGH, Massachusetts – New England Patriots Owner Robert Kraft celebrated his 80th birthday on Sunday, and some of his celebrity friends surprised him with an unexpected gift – a sparkling new Bentley.
Rapper Meek Mill posted a video on his Instagram account in which a stunned force receives the car. Philadelphia 76ers Co-owner Michael Rubin, the chairman of Fanatics, as well as Jay-Z contributed to the gift.
All have worked together to create the Reform Alliance, which since its inception in 2019 has aimed to change probation and probation in the United States.
In the video posted on InstagramKraft put both hands on his head after seeing the car for the first time and said, “Oh my god!” He had apparently hoped to buy a Bentley but apparently couldn’t find the car he was looking for, which led to his surprise.
“How did you get it?” asked Kraft Rubin.
Kraft was then told that the car was delivered in a bunk from Florida.
Kraft’s association with Mill is well documented. He got to know him through Rubin, visited the rapper in prison in 2018 and then spoke publicly on behalf of Mill that his conviction was unfair and reflected a broken criminal justice system.
“That makes it clear to me that we have to do something with the reform of the criminal law,” said Kraft at the time. “Its kind of case, in a situation like this, is really bad. I know some of our players in the NFL have spoken about it and I’ve seen it firsthand. It’s just wrong. We have to find a way to do it correct.”
After the Patriots won Super Bowl LIII over the Los Angeles RamsAt the Victory Parade, Kraft wore a thick gold chain that Mill had given him.
