COURTENEY COX and her husband DAVID ARQUETTE have sold their Malibu, California mansion for close to their $33.5 million (£17.5 million) asking price.

The couple, who paid $10.2 million (£5.1 million) for the luxury property six years ago (01), has sold it to the owners of baseball team L.A. Dodgers, Frank and Jamie McCourt.

Former Friends star Cox has a passion for interior design and house renovation, and in March (07) paid almost $20 million (£10 million) for a wreck of a property overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

However, the actress jumped at the chance to buy the cliff-top estate because it comes with stunning views and total privacy. (GES/LAT/SH)
