soft daddy

term for someone who is commonly thought to be a rugged and tough adventurer, but is in secret a lover of luxury who prefers to stay in 5-star hotels, while telling friends otherwise.

Mr. Smith had an illustrious train-hopping past, but in old age had become a soft daddy, preferring dinners at Momofuku to eating out of dumpsters. See also: fauxbo.
