Olympic skater Michelle Kwan sells her Rhode Island estate

NEWPORT, R.I. — Olympic figure skater Michelle Kwan has sold her Rhode Island estate.

The Providence Journal reports that the Newport estate, named Casa del Sole, sold for nearly $4 million.

Kwan took sole ownership after filing for divorce from Clay Pell last year. Kwan and Pell both listed “irreconcilable differences” in divorce papers.

The nearly 2-acre estate was initially listed for $4.4 million. The 5,000-square-foot (465-square-meter) home includes four bedrooms and five-and-a-half bathrooms.

Gustave White Sotheby’s International Realty announced the sale of the early 20th-century, Palladian-style villa.
