HARRY AND MEGHAN PLAN TO GIVE NYC A SHOT

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are looking for greener pastures now that their once lucrative opportunities in Hollywood seem to be drying up. Days after Spotify pulled the plug on Meg’s podcast, a story started circulating that Netflix was gearing up to terminate their $100 million deal. Our Royal source reveals that Harry and Meg are quietly looking for a pied-a-terre on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, and plan on being BICOASTAL. The source explains that Meg and Harry feel the Big Apple is an untouched market for them and they could make some new connections there. They’re looking in the $10-$16 million range in co-ops that have full time security. Ideally they want a building that has only one apartment per floor so they won’t have to deal with next-door neighbors.

Celine Dion Hawaii Health Real Estate

CELINE DION: HERE COMES THE SUN

Celine Dion might be saying say au revoir to Paris and aloha to Honolulu. The ailing singer is suffering from stiff person syndrome and it’s so bad she indefinitely postponed her tour. Celine’s a fighter though, and she’s NOT giving up. A specialist recommended she avoid cold weather, so she’s thinking about dividing her time between her Paris apartment and her mansion in Las Vegas – and then buying a home in tropical and warm Hawaii. Celine plans to spend the hottest summer months between Vegas and Paris and the rest of the year soaking up the sunshine in Honolulu. A source says she’s looking at oceanfront homes in the posh community between Diamond Head and Kahala Beach.

Ben Affleck Escrow Jennifer Lopez Real Estate Security

WILL JENNIFER LOPEZ AND BEN AFFLECK EVER AGREE ON A HOUSE?

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are lucky in love but so far, unlucky in house hunting. For the THIRD time in months, the newlyweds have entered and then CANCELED escrow on a house they were interested in buying because they can’t seem to agree on a LOCATION. Jennifer prefers a gated community like Mulholland Estates where she lived when she was married to Marc Anthony- because she felt safe from stalkers etc. But that kind of neighborhood can be remote and far from a village or even a coffee shop. Ben, on the other hand, prefers the friendly neighborhood feeling of Brentwood and Pacific Palisades, where you can walk to a park or cafe. According to a real estate insider, that’s one of the main reasons they’ve yet to purchase their new dream house. “She wants gates and security, but Ben prefers low-key luxury.”

Boy Toy Cher David Geffen Real Estate

CHER AND DAVID GEFFEN HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON

Cher just re-listed her beachfront Malibu mansion, dropping the price down to $75 million, ($10 million less than when she listed it last year.) According to a real estate insider, there are already TWO prospective clients and one is Cher’s former boyfriend, the now openly gay multi-billionaire David Geffen! Coincidentally, Cher and Geffen both have very young boyfriends. Cher and her boyfriend Alexander Edwards MIGHT be engaged, and according to Roger Friedman (Showbiz 411) David just married his 50 years younger boyfriend, model Donovan Michaels. David hopes to transform Cher’s sprawling mansion into a super luxurious boutique hotel. The other interested party wants to turn the place into a posh inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation center. Of course both ideas would need to be approved by the various zoning authorities, including the notoriously challenging California Coastal Commission, so hold off on trying to book your hotel room or rehab stay.

Malibu Meghan Markle Montecito Prince Harry Real Estate

MEGHAN AND HARRY: MONTECITO TO MALIBU?

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are financially comfortable now, thanks to his autobiography and their Netflix development deal. They are thinking about moving a few miles south, from Montecito to Malibu! Harry and Meg love the laid back yet sophisticated lifestyle of Montecito, but they’ve quickly grown bored of the wealthy but limited neighborhood. “There are only so many restaurants in town, and the shopping doesn’t compare to Los Angeles,” a Montecito resident told me. Since the couple love the beach and Meg wants to be closer to Hollywood, they’re laser focused on The Colony, a gated beachfront community in Malibu less than an hour from their current home. The Colony is as close to having a private beach as anywhere in California, plus it’s loaded with celebrities – which means enhanced SECURITY. It checks all of their boxes, so Harry and Meg have discreetly started their real estate search.

Home House Julian Lennon Real Estate

JULIAN LENNON: THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME

Julian Lennon is wallowing in regret. According to a friend, the 59-year-old son (can you believe it?) of the late Beatle John was delighted to make a nice profit when he recently sold his Hollywood Hills home. But no sooner had the ink dried on the escrow papers, than Julian decided he really MISSED his old home! He knew the buyer purchased the modern house as an investment and planned to lease it. Julian reached out to the new buyer and negotiated to lease it himself. He’s still looking for a new place to buy, but in the meantime he’s happy to be back home.

Hotel Kanye West Real Estate Wife

KANYE WEST AND BRIDE ARE SPOILED BY HOTEL LIVING

Kanye West seems to have settled down a bit now that he’s “married” to architect Bianca Censori (they exchanged vows in a non-binding ceremony last month.)The newlyweds have been living in a hotel while Kanye renovates his Malibu house, and they’ve both grown fond of hotel living. Kanye’s Malibu house renovation is expected to take awhile, so Kanye is shopping for a condo in the city that’s attached to a posh hotel. They’re considering the Ritz Carlton in downtown LA, the Four Seasons residences near Beverly Hills, the Pendry on Sunset Strip, and other similar properties. Kanye and Bianca like the idea of 24 hour room service and all the other amenities hotel living offers (who wouldn’t?) He’s obviously not worried about money because such places can sell for well over ten million dollars…
