Olivia “Livvy” Dunne struck out on the house-hunting field.
The former Louisiana State University gymnast shared that she was recently rejected from buying a New York City apartment that used to be the home of baseball legend Babe Ruth.
“Guys, I’m so upset,” Livvy said in a July 9 TikTok video. “So, two months ago, I decided I was going to make my first real estate purchase, which is so exciting, and I was going to get an apartment in New York City. But the gag was, it was Babe Ruth’s apartment.”
The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model said she actually got pretty far into the process of moving into the 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom Upper West Side unit—which was listed for $1.6 million, according to NBC News—before plans unexpectedly changed.
“I was gonna buy,” she continued. “I was gonna pay with cash—I wanted this apartment bad. Like, it got to the point where the realtor was so confident.”
In fact, Livvy and her boyfriend Paul Skenes, who is also a professional baseball player, even hired some help to turn the place into her new home.
