Real estate sources have confirmed reports that talk show host Rachel Ray has finally closed on a 6.2 acre Southampton home that she and husband John Cusimano contracted to buy last year for nearly $3 million.
Ray’s publicist Charlie Dougiello told Newsday that the closing, “was held up because of an encrochment issue between the former owner and a neighbor.”
Published reports have indicated that the neighbor in question is the Southampton Golf Club. Now that the dispute is settled, the couple and their pooch Isaboo have the run of the place. When asked recently about their plans for the summer, Cusimano told OK! Magazine, “we may go out to Long Island and spend time at the beach with our dog, who is so spoiled!”
