Michael Bloomberg bought his daughter a $4M Hamptons home
It's been a big week for Georgina Bloomberg — and she has so much more to come. Not only did the 41-year-old equestrian daughter of former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg take to Instagram late last week to share news of her near-term pregnancy, but she also just became the new owner of an East End home. Indeed, she's the secret owner of a Hamptons waterfront residence located just minutes from her father's palatial estate, sources told Gimme Shelter exclusively. Advertisement 16 Georgina Bloomberg with her father, Mike, and his longtime girlfriend Diana Taylor.

Rise Media 16 Her new dwelling comes with coveted beach access. Rise Media Advertisement And we hear her father is the buyer. 'He wants to spend time with his grandchildren!' a source said. The May 30 beach house purchase comes as the billionaire heiress — also an animal rights activist and philanthropist — and her longtime love, finance whiz Justin Waterman, are about to become parents together for the first time. Advertisement '2 week countdown begins today. I cannot wait to meet you baby girl,' Bloomberg told her 100,000 Instagram followers. Bloomberg also shares a child, Justin — born in 2013 — with her former love Ramero Quintana, an Argentine Olympic show jumping rider. 16 Bloomberg is an accomplished equestrian.

Rise Media The new home is on Cold Point Road in Southampton and comes with 100 feet on the water. It was last asking $4.29 million and went into contract quickly — closing for $4 million, according to records. It was an all-cash deal, sources said. Designed by acclaimed local architect John David Rose, the home overlooks Cold Spring Pond and Peconic Bay beach. The sale sets a new pricing benchmark for the Cold Spring Point Beach Community. Advertisement There's no pool at the house, but there is an outdoor shower — and a boat dock in the backyard. And if Bloomberg doesn't feel like meandering over to her dad's estate, her home has access to community tennis courts, as well as pickleball and basketball courts, along with beach access. But she can still bring the kids to see grandpa — and quite easily, too. 16 A screened-in sitting room looks to wide views. Rise Media 16 There's also space for patio seating. Rise Media Advertisement 16 The grounds offer serene settings for her and her growing family. Rise Media 16 Kids of all ages will love the sandy beach. Rise Media The charming abode is just 'five minutes' away from her father's estate, which is known as Ballyshear. That ivy-covered Georgian mansion is 22,000 square feet and overlooks Peconic Bay. It was built in 1910, spans a massive 35 acres, and is adjacent to the National Golf Links of America in Shinnecock Hills, which has hosted many US Opens. Michael Bloomberg, a member of the club, plays there regularly. The size of Michael Bloomberg's estate makes his daughter's new home seem relatively tiny by comparison. Built in 2012, her two-story home is still a very roomy 3,000 square feet. Advertisement It features four bedrooms and 4.5 baths, and sits on one third of an acre. The home's open floor plan and large windows showcase bay and pond views 'from every room,' according to the listing. It all opens to a great room with a stone fireplace — and leads to a chef's kitchen, a butler's pantry and a dining area. The second floor features the primary suite with a covered porch ideal for morning coffee at sunrise. There's an additional 760 square feet of storage space in the attic. The listing rep was Douglas Elliman's Brenda Giufurta, who declined to comment.

George Clooney roasts his brunette hair: 'Midlife crisis'
It'll be one fine day for George Clooney when he can go back to his roots. The actor, 64, isn't thrilled about dyeing his hair brunette for his Broadway play 'Good Night, and Good Luck' — and will return to silver fox status when the takes his final bow on June 8. 8 George Clooney on 'Late Night with Seth Meyers.' Lloyd Bishop/NBC via Getty Images 8 George Clooney talks about his new hairdo. Lloyd Bishop/NBC via Getty Images 'It's bad. It's still dark on top, but it's gray at the bottom,' he confessed while on 'Late Night with Seth Meyers' on Monday. 'So you get that really nice-looking grow-out of gray.' Clooney wore a hat on the show, telling Myers, 51, he wanted to 'hide' his hair transformation. 'The last show is Sunday,' he added. 'We do a matinee, and then by the time we go to the Tonys that night, it'll be gone.' Meyers told the 'Ticket to Paradise' star that his hair looked 'great on stage,' as Clooney sarcastically quipped: 'Sure.' 8 George Clooney attends the 78th Annual Tony Awards Meet The Nominees Press Event. Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions 'It really looks bad,' Clooney went on. 'It looks like [I'm] going through some horrible midlife crisis. I'm 64 — midlife is a little stretch.' Meanwhile, the 'Wolfs' alum expressed his wife, Amal Clooney, found his new look 'funny,' but he did note she will 'be glad when it's gone.' 8 Opening night of 'Good Night, and Good Luck' on Broadway. Stephen Lovekin/Shutterstock Clooney has some ideas of what look could come next. 'I may have a shaved head. I may look like Yul Brynner,' he detailed. 'Good Night, and Good Luck,' which opened on April 3, marked Clooney's first time on Broadway as he portrays Edward R. Murrow, the journalist who wrote the 1954 exposé piece on Senator Joseph McCarthy. The play is adapted from the 2005 movie of the same name. Clooney directed and co-wrote the film, which also starred David Strathairn, Patricia Clarkson and Robert Downey Jr. 8 George Clooney and Ilana Glazer during the opening night curtain call of 'Good Night and Good Luck' on Broadway. Bruce Glikas/FilmMagic However, in 2005, he played Murrow's producer Fred Friendly. The show nabbed several nominations at the 2025 Tony Awards, including Clooney garnering a nod for Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Play. The production is also up for Best Scenic Design of a Play, Best Sound Design of a Play, Best Lighting Design of a Play and Best Costume Design of a Play. In March, Clooney reflected on playing Fred Friendly 20 years ago. 'Murrow had a gravitas to him that at 42 years old I didn't,' he said while on 60 Minutes. 'I wasn't able to pull off.' 8 'Good Night, And Good Luck' opening night. Getty Images 8 George Clooney attends the 78th Annual Tony Awards Meet the Nominees at Sofitel New York in New York. Dinara Khairova / This time around, he feels differently. 'It's exciting to be here, you know?' Clooney said about his Broadway debut. 'Let's not kid ourselves. It's nerve-wracking and there's a million reasons why it's dumb to do.' 'It's dumb to do because you're coming out and saying, 'Well, let's try to get an audience to take this ride with you back to 1954.'' 8 George Clooney and Danya Taymor attend the 78th Annual Tony Awards Nominees Luncheon. Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions Clooney grew up in newsrooms beside his father, Nick Clooney, who was a journalist and anchor. 'When I was 12 years old, my dad was working at WKRC in Cincinnati,' the star reflected. 'I would run the teleprompter.' Having it be his first time in live theater, Clooney stated about the audience, 'I'm not looking at them.' He teased: 'I'm putting my wife in the very, very, very back.'

Famous Trump Golf Buddy Practices On White House Lawn In Viral Video
Golfer Bryson DeChambeau was filmed practicing on the White House lawn before he defends his U.S. Open title later this month. In now-viral video shared Monday by Trump communications adviser Margo Martin, DeChambeau hit an apparent wedge shot just a few feet short of the hole. Advertisement The two-time major champ, who's ranked 10th in the world, was 'throwing darts on the South Lawn of the White House,' Martin wrote. Clapping is heard, but it's unclear if it was coming from President Donald Trump, who appeared Sunday with DeChambeau at Trump National Golf Club in D.C. While DeChambeau showed off his short game at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., he's better known for his drives. He boasts multiple efforts of 400 yards or more off the tee. Trump mused over the athlete's big hits at Trump National Golf Club. 'I always consider myself a reasonably long hitter and then I play with him,' Trump said in a video. 'My wife says, 'Are you as long as Bryson?' I say, 'Yeah sorta, pretty close.' It's not close.' Advertisement Trump also complimented DeChambeau's length on the night he won he 2024 election. DeChambeau and Trump make their way Sunday to the Oval Office. SAUL LOEB via Getty Images The president showed off his own skills in a YouTube round with DeChambeau last summer, but he's reportedly been less than honest in his approach to the game overall. 'He cheats like a mafia accountant,' and victories on his own courses are as 'fake as Velveeta cheese,' 'Commander in Cheat' author Rick Reilly said of the golf-obsessed president. DeChambeau, who tied for second at the recent PGA Championship, vies for his third U.S. Open title beginning June 12 in Oakmont, Pennsylvania.
