Livvy Dunne Says She Was Rejected From Buying Babe Ruth's New York Apartment for $1.6 Million

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK, JUL 9 – The co-op board rejected Livvy Dunne's application days before key handover, possibly due to concerns about a public figure living there, despite her $1.59 million cash offer.

  • Olivia Dunne, a former LSU gymnast and social media star, was denied by the co-op board from purchasing Babe Ruth's former Upper West Side apartment in 2025.
  • She was prepared to buy the $1.59 million three-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom apartment in cash but was blocked after the residents voted against her residency, though the exact reason remains unclear.
  • In a TikTok video, Dunne revealed that she was expected to receive the apartment keys that week but was ultimately refused, and mentioned that her boyfriend brought in a professional to handle the unit’s interior design.
  • She shared her disappointment, stating, "I'm just disappointed, that's all," and mentioned that the majority of residents voted against her living in the building, which she accepted.
  • The denial prevented Dunne from making her first real estate purchase and suggests co-op boards may restrict public figures even when financial terms are met.
