Baldwin Selling New York Home
By WENNFriday, August 28, 2009
ALEC BALDWIN is finally moving on after his split from KIM BASINGER - he is selling the apartment where he nearly killed himself in the fallout from their bitter divorce.
The Cooler star broke up with Basinger in 2000 and the couple became locked in a long-running battle for custody of their 13-year-old daughter Ireland.
In 2007, Baldwin hit headlines when an answerphone message in which he called his daughter a “thoughtless little pig” was leaked onto the internet.
He fell into a spiral of depression after the incident and subsequently admitted: “The thought of jumping out the window of my apartment was with me every night for weeks.”
Now Baldwin appears to be finally putting the past behind him - he is selling the plush three-bedroom, three-bathroom home close to Central Park for $7.5 million (£5 million).
The apartment takes up the entire 22nd floor of the building and has its own private elevator entrance. Baldwin is also offering to sell a smaller home in the same block - for an extra $1.2 million (£800,000).
