Has Erica Stoll moved out of the couple’s $22 million Florida mansion?

The short answer to this is no. Even after their tumultuous split, the star’s wife, who has a history of working at the Professional Golf Association of America, is believed to reside in the same Florida mansion inside the guard-gated Bear’s Club golf community, along with the couple’s 4-year-old daughter. But what about the 35-year-old then?

As per the latest updates, McIlroy continues to remain in Louisville, Kentucky, for the PGA Championship, at the moment. With dreams to add another major to his record after a decade, the ambitious pro golfer has previously requested to keep matters of his chaotic personal life “as respectful and amicable as possible”.

Coming back to this magnificent property, Rory McIlroy is known to have purchased it from Ernie Els back in 2012 for a whopping $11 million. More than a decade later, the mansion is worth almost double or more. It comprises a 2.4-acre stretch of highly valuable land with 10 bathrooms and nine bedrooms. It also houses the family’s tennis court and a swimming pool. Magnificent golf courses and equally magnificent houses surround it in the neighborhood.

It is unknown whether the couple eyeing divorce will live separately in the future or not. Keeping in mind the host of other magnificent properties that the family owns, anything is possible.

Another 19th-century mansion in County Down with a 200-acre pad boasting a private golf course, a lake, and a tennis court. Additionally, two apartments in New York and the UAE.

While Rory McIlroy seems to be full of options to sort out his housing situation, what will be the case for their daughter’s upbringing?
