Letting go of his past: Leventhal, in a statement, said he had owned the home for 25 years but the couple’s decision to be based on the West Coast led to him to part with it
The residence with four bedrooms, and two bathrooms is located in Westhampton, Long Island.
Leventhal, in a statement, said he had owned the home for 25 years but the couple’s decision to be based on the West Coast led to him to part with it.
‘This is where Kelly and I met, so it will always hold a special place in our hearts, but we are on the West Coast now,’ he told the NY Post.
‘One day, if and when we move back East, we hope to buy or build another home for ourselves in the Hamptons.’
