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.
“I got an interior designer ’cause I didn’t want to bring my college furniture to Babe Ruth’s apartment, that’d be criminal,” she explained. “Then the week that I’m supposed to get my keys to my brand-new apartment, I get a call—the co-op board denied me.”
Indeed, within a co-op—a form of housing where residents collectively own and manage a building or property, rather than owning individual units—the board has the power to approve or deny potential buyers.
But as for why the other building residents voted to not have her live there? The reason remains a mystery to Livvy, though she insisted it “wasn’t financial.”
“For all I know, they could have been Alabama fans and I went to LSU,” she said. “Like, I have no clue. Maybe they didn’t want a public figure living there, but I was literally supposed to get the keys, and that week, they denied me.”
And while Livvy isn’t happy with the board’s decision, she still thinks about the apartment fondly.
“It was just iconic,” she said. “It was so cool that it was Babe Ruth’s apartment.”
The influencer added, “Long story short, don’t try to live in a co-op, you might get denied and you won’t get Babe Ruth’s apartment.”
