Susan Boyle Says Goodbye to Her Childhood Home After 60 Years — and Hello to Love, Peace, and a New Life
Susan Boyle dropped jaws and captured hearts back in 2009, when she first appeared on Britain’s Got Talent. After finishing second place on the show to dance group Diversity, she went on to sell more than 19 million records and is now worth an estimated £22 million.
On Tuesday, the 64-year-old singer made a shock return to social media, with a total hair transformation and some exciting news. See the video she posted to Instagram here…
Despite skyrocketing to stardom, the Blackburn, West Lothian native has kept true to her roots. Not only has she stayed in the same town – Susan also still lives in the exact same council house that she grew up in.
Susan Boyle’s renovated home
When Susan first shot to fame, she paid £65,000 to buy her three-bedroom former council house. Though she bought a £300,000 new-build detached five-bedroom house on the other end of town in 2010, she struggled to settle down there and moved back to her first home.
Four years later, she bought the house next door to her former council house for £110,000, to combine the two properties and create her dream home.
