The Biggest Loser's Michelle Bridges wins big as Potts Point prestige prices shed kilograms

Jonathan ChancellorMay 2, 2013

The celebrity trainer Michelle Bridges from Channel Ten's The Biggest Loser and her business manager, and recently estranged husband, Bill Moore, have snapped up a Potts Point apartment on the cheap.

The three-bedroom, two bathroom Pomeroy apartment sold through the slimming Richardson & Wrench Elizabeth Bay agent Jason Boon and his conjunctional agent Geoff Cox for $2.9 million recently.

It had previously sold at $3.2 million in early 2010 when the investment was offloaded by the interior designers Marco Meneguzzi and Michael Love.

The society designers had bought it off the plan for $2.4 million in 2004 from Garry Rothwell's Winten Group.

The street side apartment overlooking leafy views towards the CBD skyline as well as the boat-filled Rushcutters Bay from its two terraces was bought just before its scheduled February auction.

It was just before reports of their nine year marriage coming to an end.  Bridges and Moore secured it without any registered finance.

After her meteoric rise from fitness instructing at her nearby Nelson Bay High to becoming Australia's most respected fitness identity, their commercial empire involves Bridges' television show appearances along with her top selling books, including  Losing the Last 5 Kilos and the Crunch Time Cookbook.

The couple bought in Rozelle for $810,000 in 2006.

The apartment was marketed as New York inspired for contemporary low maintenance high quality living and entertaining.
