Back in 2001, Derek Jeter paid $12.72 million for a penthouse in Trump World Tower. He bought the unit directly from Donald Trump himself. Derek lived here until October 2012, when he sold it for $15.5 million. He actually listed it two years earlier for $20 million.
During his years of ownership, Derek famously bedded some of the world's most famous and beautiful women in this very apartment. His celebrity conquests reportedly included:
- Jessica Alba
- Jessica Biel
- Vanessa Lachey
- Scarlett Johansson
- Minka Kelly
And that's just the celebrities! According to legend, when he wasn't in a relationship, and before he began dating the woman who became his wife, Hannah Davis (they began dating in 2012 and married in 2015), Derek brought many, many, many gorgeous non-famous women back to this very apartment.
The legend of Derek Jeter's bedroom prowess jumped to a new level in 2011 after the NY Post published a now-infamous story told by one of his alleged conquests. According to this alleged sexual partner, on the morning after their one-night stand, she was whisked down to the garage where a car was waiting to drive her home. And…
"Waiting in his car is a gift basket containing signed Jeter memorabilia, usually a signed baseball," the friend dished."
You're reading that correctly. Derek allegedly used to send his dates home with a gift basket of Jeter-abilia. I can picture it now. A bottle of Fiji water, some Tylenol, a banana, a signed baseball, some gum… Kind of brilliant to be honest.
But that's not all…
At some point thereafter, this woman apparently found herself in Derek's amorous crosshairs again. But! He didn't remember her! As she absolutely should have, the woman decided to go along with it because, A) She probably wanted to hook up with Derek Jeter again. And B) She wanted to know if this gift basket thing was a one-off, or really something he did with every girl.
And guess what…
The morning after their second-night-stand, she is whisked down to the garage and into a car where she finds yet another gift basket! LEGENDARY!
And if you're in the market for an absolutely stunning New York apartment with a legendary Derek Jeter history, I have good news! The person who bought the apartment from Derek just listed it for $16.6 million. Unclear if the sale comes with a gift basket… Here is a video tour!
