Story summary

Libbie Mugrabi, known for her lavish lifestyle, has set October 1 as her move-out date from a Bridgehampton mansion she lost at auction in Southampton Town Hall. The property was sold for $5.86 million, significantly less than its estimated value, after Mugrabi failed to pay back a $3.5 million loan against the home. Initially refusing to leave despite the sale deadline approaching or having passed, Mugrabi now plans to relocate to South Florida, where she hopes to find a wealthy new partner and focus on her art collection. This move marks the end of a two-year legal battle over the estate in Suffolk County.
