Robbie Williams 'splashes out on £30MILLION waterfront mansion in Miami which boasts seven bedrooms, an 18-car garage, wine cellar and its own dock'
Robbie Williams has reportedly splashed out on a new £30 million waterfront mansion in Miami. The singer, 51, and his wife Ayda Field will soon be moving into the sprawling US property, according to The New York Post. The lavish home boasts seven bedrooms, an 18-car garage, wine cellar and its own dock directly onto the water. In addition to the £30 million price tag he reportedly spent another £4 million on furniture, adjustments and building renovations to make it the perfect family home. It comes after last May he sold his LA mansion for £51.6 million ($65M) - making a handsome £12.3million in just over two years. He hired Miami property developer Manny Angelo Varas to extend and perfect the home. He told the publication: 'We're doing a ground-up build. He'll be relocating immediately to the existing home, and we're going to be doing new construction, adding between 2,500 and 3,500 square feet. 'We're creating functional spaces that could be used as a recording studio and multiple different functions. 'So he's able to work from home when he's not on tour.' There are also reportedly plans for a floating padel court, which would be the first of its kind for a US home. Robbie bought his new home from Real Housewives of Miami star Dr Nicole Martin and husband Anthony Lopez. Robbie sold his LA home last year. The sale meant the British singer looked to be cutting ties with Hollywood for good after owning a place there for 18 years. He purchased the huge property, which sits on 1.95 acres, in uber-rich Holmby Hills for £39.3million in March 2022. The three-house estate featured eight bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, pool and tennis court, plus an impressive garage that holds 15 luxury cars, all spanning over 18,900 sq ft. Dubbed the 'Funny Girl' Estate, the property was originally constructed in 1938 for the renowned comedian Fanny Brice. She was famously played by Barbara Streisand in a Broadway musical based on her life The starlet, whose life is the subject of semi-biographical musical Funny Girl, lived at the Faring Estate until she died in 1951. Robbie has now sold four properties in the last two years, with his only other remaining asset being his £17.5million Kensington, London home. According to documents, the new owner is Lapro Property Trust, which is a Sydney-based entity associated with Aussie billionaire Nick Molnar, who co-founded Afterpay. Molnar previously purchased Matthew Perry's Century City penthouse for £16.6M in 2021 - and sold it to Rihanna two years later. Robbie seems in a big hurry to get rid of his properties. In 2022 he even revealed he had nowhere to live after selling his home in Wiltshire and his previous Los Angeles property. He sold a ten bedroom, twenty-two bathroom LA mansion to Drake in a private $35-$50 million deal for the ten bedroom, twenty-two bathroom mansion. The 2022 sale came two months after Robbie found a buyer for his Wiltshire home in a deal worth £6.75million. Speaking to Australian radio hosts Kyle Sandilands and Jackie 'O' Henderson, Robbie said at the time: 'We're actually nowhere.' 'We haven't got an abode right now, we've pretty much sold everywhere, we don't live anywhere and we're trying to figure it out.' Robbie and his wife Ayda, 46, share four children, Teddy, 11, son Charlie, nine, daughter Coco, five and three-year-old son Beau. Robbie previously said that his kids are a massive factor in deciding where to live because they need to be placed in suitable schools. He explained: 'The four kids are constantly a Rubix Cube puzzle that we're trying to sort out because if they are schooled then they don't see me because I'm all over the place and if they are home-schooled then they have another set of things that are a problem.' Speaking in 2014, Robbie - then a father of two - admitted he was keen to make the United Kingdom his permanent base after spending an extended period of time in the United States. He told The Sun: 'I love LA. The people and the weather are great but it's not England. It can't offer the same. Things change when you're a dad - there are people to look after who are more important than yourself. 'I want [daughter] Teddy and the new baby, whatever it may be, to be educated in England. Teddy is already surrounded by English people so she's bound to have an accent anyway. 'But that's not the point - we want to educate her in London. We've just bought a ruddy big house so we had better be coming back!'

Christie Brinkley reveals daughter's ‘experiment' for dating app
Supermodel Christie Brinkley revealed on a podcast that she and her youngest daughter, Sailor Brinkley Cook, discovered they had matched with the same men on a dating app. Appearing on Kristin Davis's Are You A Charlotte? podcast, Christie, 71, shared the surprising outcome of her daughter's experiment. Sailor, 27, created a dating app profile for her mother without her knowledge to observe the types of matches she would attract. Within an hour of the profile being active, Sailor found that two men had matched with both her and her mother. Christie quoted her daughter's reaction: 'Mom, you're right not to go on it, because the same guys that said yes to me, are saying yes to you.'

NFL and ESPN reach nonbinding agreement for sale of NFL Network and other media assets
Ever since the NFL announced it was looking to sell NFL Network and other media assets, ESPN had been seen as one of the favorites to make a deal. Nearly five years later, a framework is finally in place. The NFL announced Tuesday night that it has entered into a nonbinding agreement with ESPN. Under the terms, ESPN will acquire NFL Network, NFL Fantasy and the rights to distribute the RedZone channel to cable and satellite operators and the league will get a 10% equity stake in ESPN. The league and ESPN still have to negotiate a final agreement and get approval from NFL owners. The agreement will also have to undergo regulatory approvals. 'Sometimes great things take a long time to get to the point where it's right. And we both feel that it is at this stage,' NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a call with The Associated Press. Along with the sale of NFL Network, the NFL and ESPN will have a second nonbinding agreement where the NFL will license to ESPN certain NFL content and other intellectual property that can be used by NFL Network and other assets that have been purchased. 'We have been talking about it in earnest for the last few years. But interestingly enough, we started talking about this over a decade ago but nothing really ended up happening. And we got back at it when I came back to Disney after my retirement,' Disney CEO Bob Iger said in a call with the AP. What ESPN gets ESPN is expected to launch its direct-to-consumer service before the end of September. The service would give cord-cutters access to all ESPN programs and networks for $29.99 per month. The addition of more NFL programming increases the value. Many viewers will receive the service for free as part of their subscription to cable, satellite and most streaming services. 'When I came back to Disney and assessed essentially the future of ESPN, it became clear that ESPN had to launch a bigger and more robust and digital or direct-to-consumer product, not only for the sake of ESPN's business, but for the sports fan,' Iger said. "And obviously, when you start thinking about high-quality sports content, your eyes immediately head in the direction of the NFL because there's really nothing more valuable and more popular than that. NFL Network — which has nearly 50 million subscribers — would be owned and operated by ESPN and would be included in ESPN's direct-to-consumer product. The NFL RedZone channel would be distributed by ESPN to cable and satellite operators. However, the NFL will continue to own, operate and produce the channel as well as retain the rights to distribute the channel digitally. ESPN would also get rights to the RedZone brand, meaning RedZone channels for college football and basketball or other sports could be coming in the future. NFL Fantasy Football would merge with ESPN Fantasy Football, giving ESPN the official fantasy football game of the league. NFL Network will still air seven games per season. Four of ESPN's games, including some that are in overlapping windows on Monday nights, would move to NFL Network. ESPN will license three additional games that will be carried on NFL Network. What the NFL receives (and retains) The league gets a 10% equity stake in ESPN. Aidan O'Connor, a senior vice president at the Prosek Partners marketing firm, estimates the value of that would be $2.2 billion to $2.5 billion. ESPN is currently 80% owned by ABC Inc. as an indirect subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company. The other 20% is owned by Hearst. There isn't any word yet on whether the 10% stake for the NFL would all come from ABC's stake or whether it would be 5% each from ABC and Hearst. This isn't the first time the league has had an equity stake in a digital or communications business. It had that in the past with Sirius Satellite Radio and SportsLine. The NFL could also have equity in the newly formed 'Paramount Skydance Corporation,' which owns CBS, due to the league's partnership with Skydance. 'This is new as far as a partner now operating a business that we built, ran and grew," said Hans Schroeder, the NFL's executive vice president of media distribution. "It'll also be a little bit new again with some of the dynamics here, but we'll continue to balance that in a really arm's length way where we'll think about how we manage and work across to all our partners.' The league will continue to own and operate NFL Films, NFL+, the official websites of the 32 teams, the NFL Podcast Network and the NFL FAST Channel (a free ad-supported streaming channel). 'The moves align with the NFL's longstanding ambition to reach $25 billion in annual revenue by 2027 — a target first set in 2010, when league revenue stood at approximately $8.5 billion,' O'Connor said. 'Financially, the move also signals to investors that ESPN is doubling down on differentiation and content stickiness by offering a scarce and premium product in a crowded marketplace. Intentionally ceding equity to the NFL transforms ESPN from a media licensee into a true platform partner — with few properties rivaling the league in terms of cultural significance, appointment viewing, audience reach, and monetization efficiency." No major changes yet Viewers will likely not see any immediate impacts until next year once everything is approved. Besides ESPN, the biggest winner in this could be NFL Network, which had seen reductions in original programming the past couple years. 'Total Access,' the network's flagship show since its launch in 2003, ended in May 2024 amid a series of layoffs and cost-cutting moves. 'Good Morning Football' also moved from New York, where it had been since its start in 2016, to Southern California last year. NFL Network moved to a broadcast facility across the street from SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, in 2021. 'The thing that's exciting for us is that we have put a lot into the network. I think it's been very effective for fans. We know it's in good hands,' Goodell said. 'They're innovative, they recognize great production and know how to produce it. They will do a fantastic job of operating the network and taking it to another level.' ___
