UPDATED Jan. 24, 2018 1:28 p.m.: Anthony Scaramucci, whose short tenure as White House communication director produced some of the most memorable and bizarre 10 days in American politics, just bought a $7.5 million mansion in the Hamptons with his wife Deidre Ball.

The 7,000-square-feet home in Water Mill has seven bedrooms, seven bathrooms and a pool. The brand new home at 30 Lawrence Court sits on a 1-acre plot that overlooks a reserve near actor Alan Alda’s property on Oliver Cove Lane, according to the New York Post.

It’s only been several months since the couple, who have been married for three years, called off plans for a divorce. Ball filed for divorce in July just before the birth of their son, but withdrew the papers in November, according to the Post.

“They are planning to spend a lot of time in the Hamptons this summer,” a friend told the Post. It remains to be seen if the Mooch will last in his new location longer than 10 days. [NYP] — Chava Gourarie
