Removal men have been pictured emptying the hangout spot, Tramp, adored by many celebrities and royals such as\u00a0Mick Jagger, Jack Nicholson\u00a0and Princes William and Harry.<\/p>\n
Images show the removal company lugging boxes of booze – such as Stolichnaya Vodka and Don Julio Tequila – into a white van.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Other luxurious beverages like Krug Champagne, which costs more than \u00a3200-a-bottle, were also carted away from the exclusive Mayfair club today.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Stars such as Jack Nicholson\u00a0enjoyed nights out at Tramp with his popstar friend Mick Hucknall, as an image shows them surrounded by women at the club after a raucous night out in the capital city.<\/p>\n
The legendary club was a playground for the rich, famous and royalty for more than 50 years and appears to have been secretly sold.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It came just weeks after Tramp hosted Luther star Idris Elba as he celebrated the launch of his ros\u00e9 champagne, Porte Noire, with no sign of the closure to come.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The legendary club was a playground for the rich, famous and royalty for more than 50 years and appears to have been secretly sold<\/p>\n
But barely a fortnight later, five key directors \u2013 including Guy Sangster, son of the late horse breeding tycoon Robert Sangster, and Kevin Doyle, who acquired the club for \u00a34million in 1998 \u2013 resigned in unison from the holding company which now owns Tramp.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Its legendary founder Johnny Gold opened the club on December 18, 1969. Mick Jagger was a founding member and with him on the opening night were hell-raisers Peter Sellers,\u00a0Michael Caine and Richard Harris.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Overnight, Tramp became a hang-out for the film and rock ‘n’ roll elite. The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Marlon Brando and Charlton Heston were regulars when in London. Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor\u00a0would drop by.\u00a0<\/p>\n
More recently it became famous worldwide after Prince Andrew was accused of whirling Virginia Roberts round the dancefloor.<\/p>\n
He denied it, saying her description of him sweating cannot be true because he stopped perspiring after serving in the Falklands and came under fire from the Argentinians.<\/p>\n
Princess Margaret, Prince William, Prince Harry and other royals have left bleary-eyed after nights out there.<\/p>\n
But what happens next for Tramp is unclear, after a mystery buyer appears to have snapped it up just over two years to the day after Mr Gold died.<\/p>\n
Tramp’s new owner appears to be Luca Maggiora, who’s described as a ‘former bank credit analyst turned leading hospitality entrepreneur’. But little is known about what Mr Maggiora will do with his legendary acquisition.<\/p>\n
Five key directors \u2014 including Guy Sangster, son of the late horse-breeding tycoon Robert Sangster, and Kevin Doyle, who acquired the club for \u00a34million in 1998 \u2014 resigned in unison from the holding company which now owns Tramp.<\/p>\n

The Daily Mail’s Richard Eden reports that a fashion show, which was to have been held there this week, appears to be the first casualty.<\/p>\n
‘I got a call saying the club was sold and cancelling my event \u2014 unless I could pay \u00a32,000 up front,’ an organiser said. ‘It’s very sad. I’ve had a great relationship with Tramp for years.’<\/p>\n
Calls to the club are being answered but a ‘well-spoken woman’ would only confirm that Tramp is closed.<\/p>\n
The stars who partied there helped create the greatest nightclub of the 1970s and 1980s.<\/p>\n
Mr Gold’s strict policy of no paparazzi and no autograph-hunters meant that it was a welcome oasis, not just for movie stars and celebrities, but also for royalty.<\/p>\n
Princess Margaret felt reassured enough to let her hair down, often \u2014 if her photographer and then husband Lord Snowdon was working \u2014 with the actor Peter Sellers in tow.<\/p>\n
‘I don’t think anything went on between them,’ recalled Gold in his memoir Tramp’s Gold. ‘From my observation, they were genuinely just good friends. Peter always had a crush on Princess Margaret and, to an extent, it was reciprocated.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘He even offered to swap wives with Tony [Snowdon] but although the delectable Britt Ekland [Sellers’ second wife] was on offer, the noble photographer declined.’\u00a0<\/p>\n
