Inside Zoe Ball’s incredible £1.5m Sussex home with pool and tennis court
ZOE Ball lives in an incredible £1.5million Sussex mansion with a pool and a tennis court.
The radio presenter, 52, and her beau Michael Reed packed up their bags and moved 18 minutes down the road to their new pad in Lewes.
The pair moved from a stunning £1m cottage in Ditchling, East Sussex to the popular country town which is just eight miles away.
Their £1.5m abode, which was built by a Russian aristocrat, Baron Vladimir de Wolff in the 1920s, boasts a swimming pool, tennis court and acres of land to enjoy.
Snaps show off the incredible six-bedroom property, which is decorated in traditional countryside style with heaps of hand-made wooden furniture.
Despite the plentiful spare bedrooms – which overlook the huge garden – Zoe’s son, Woody Cook doesn’t live with them.
Woody, 22, hit the headlines after admitting that his mum and dad won’t let him live off their success – despite the former couple being worth a combined £35million.
“Everyone has to leave their nest, go on their own path and forge their own lives. My parents have always expressed I must have a capacity to leave the nest and I have rather successfully for the most part,” he explained.
“I chose to be self sufficient early as living without the financial aid of my parents is as important to me as it is to pretty much anyone else.”
Zoe was first linked with construction firm boss Michael back in 2017 when they were spotted heading to a hotel after a night out in Soho.
A year later the couple made their first official red carpet appearance in December 2018 and since then their relationship has been going from strength to strength.
Their romance came after Zoe was left devastated by the suicide of her TV cameraman boyfriend Billy Yates, in May 2017.
Zoe first rose to fame when she became the first female host of The Radio 1 Breakfast Show in 1998.
Since then her career has sky rocketed and has gone on to appear in various shows including Strictly Come Dancing and from that managed bag herself a role as spin-off host – It Takes Two – in 2011.
The star was married to Norman Cook from 1999 until 2016.
They have two children together, Woody, and daughter Nelly, 11.
