Great news for Rams fans ... star defensive tackle Aaron Donald purchased a $17 million Hidden Hills home after selling his old crib in Calabasas, so it sure looks like AD isn't leaving Los Angeles!!
Yes, Rams fans, breathe.
Of course, droves of Rams fans feared the future Hall of Famer was ready to retire when he sold his Calabasas mansion for $6.258 million a few weeks ago.
But, as it turns out ... the man was just upgrading (not that the OG house wasn't awesome) estates!!
Donald's new 12,000 square-foot pad features 8 bedrooms, 9 nine baths, a game room, movie theater, gym with a steam shower and sauna.
There's more ... the luxurious home includes a spacious living room with a fireplace and a private office for studying that playbook.
In fact, with AD's latest purchase, the 3-time defensive player of the year is basically neighbors with his Super Bowl-winning quarterback Matthew Stafford and head coach Sean McVay.
As if that wasn't enough, Donald's new residence -- which was originally constructed in 1983 -- has a four-car garage and an outdoor pool.
If there was ever any doubt that AD wasn't coming back -- and planned on hanging up his pads -- he now has 17 million reasons to play next season.
Sandro Dazzan and Cooper Mount of The Agency held the listing.
It remains good to be a Rams fan!

Betty White L.A. House Up For Sale
Betty White's L.A. home is on the market, and her estate could be millions richer for it.
Betty's 3,029 square foot home in Brentwood, CA is listed for $10.575M. It has some great views of the famed Getty Museum ... with a massive backyard outfitted with the obligatory SoCal swimming pool.
Betty spent many years here -- she moved there in 1968. She lived there with husband Allen Ludden because it was central to a bunch of studios on the Westside of L.A. Betty stayed put after Allen died in 1981 ... in fact, she lived there until she died in the home last New Year's Eve.
There's also a guest house, where Betty and Allen enjoyed playing charades with friends like Jimmy and Gloria Stewart, Dinah Shore and Burt Reynolds.
If you're a lookie-loo, don't bother ... the only people who can tour the home are prequalified buyers and will be given no interior access to the home.
As we reported, a buyer has already laid claim to Betty's home in Carmel, CA, where Betty also spent lots of time. That house is incredible, with views of the famed Monterey Peninsula. It was listed at $7.9 mil, and a bidding war hiked the final price to $10.7 mil.
Betty wanted to live out her final days in the Carmel home, but had to live in the L.A. house for medical reasons.
Marlene Okulick of Sotheby’s International Realty – Pacific Palisades Brokerage -- has the listing on the Brentwood property.

The cast of “Selling Sunset” was without its biggest star for the show’s reunion … Christine Quinn missed out thanks to a positive COVID test.
Christine's rep tells TMZ, "Christine tested positive for COVID on Saturday and out of an abundance of caution, she did not attend the reunion." The reunion taped Sunday at Raleigh Studios in Hollywood.
If you’re familiar with the show, Quinn’s an essential part of the storyline, and has been labeled the villain time and time again. Cast member Amanza Smith also revealed she had to miss the reunion because of COVID, but she appeared virtually.
Christine's rep tells us producers offered Quinn the opportunity to video chat in for the reunion, but she declined as she wasn't feeling well enough to do it.

'Selling Sunset' Maya Agrees with Fans on Season 5 ... Show More Homes, Less Drama!!!

"Selling Sunset" has some fans begging for more ... more luxury homes, that is, and at least one cast member, Maya Vander, agrees -- but that's not the only reason she's having a hard time watching the new season.
Maya joined us Friday on TMZ Live and opened up about the trauma she endured when her baby was stillborn late last year.
She'd been expecting the whole time they shot season 5 -- which just dropped on Netflix -- so, now watching the show means seeing herself pregnant again.
She told us she hopes sharing the tragic story can help other parents dealing with similar losses.
As for the rest of the show's storylines ... Maya admits, there seems to be less and less real estate in a show that's all about selling real estate -- but, at the same time, she knows "drama sells" on TV.
She says, there's enough drama within the business already so she doesn't think there needs to be any more surrounding the cast members. Although Maya's planning to leave the show, she still loves the biz -- she has her own agency in South FL -- and hopes they'll show more homes in upcoming seasons.

Madonna Lists Massive Hidden Hills Estate For $25.9M
Madonna just can't keep still, because she's selling the massive estate she bought just a year ago.
Madge just listed her Hidden Hills home for just under $26 million ... in case you've followed her real estate moves, she bought the house last year from The Weeknd for $19.3 mil, so she's banking on a sizeable profit.
The house is 12,000 square feet, with 9 bedrooms. Among the bells and whistles ... a theater, music lounge, indoor/outdoor bar and the obligatory SoCal pool.
And, then there are even cooler features, like a barn, a gym and a dance studio.
The real estate market is cooling a bit in the L.A. area, like in other parts of the country, largely because interest rates have soared recently. That may not have an impact on this sale, because whoever can afford the house probably doesn't care whether the interest rate is 3% or 5%.
Madonna won't be struggling to find a place to call home ... she has homes in New York, London, Beverly Hills and Lisbon.
Trevor Wright of The Beverly Hills Estates has the listing.

Katharine McPhee is now more than a million dollars richer ... cause she just sold her Hollywood Hills home for $3.27 Mil.
The "American Idol" alum first listed the pad for about $2.6 Mil last March ... so she was able to cash in, and get a bit more than the original asking price.

Ben & Jen Forget Easter Egg Hunt We're Still on the House Prowl!!!
Their kids might've been in search of plastic colored eggs this AM, but Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are on a different hunt ... pounding the pavement for their new home.
The couple -- who are newly engaged (again) -- was checking out different properties all throughout Easter weekend ... including on Sunday itself, when they popped up in Bel Air on what appears to be a site that was very much so under construction.
We can't see any actual house here -- it might be getting built as we speak -- but Ben and Jen were out and about taking a look around before heading back to their SUV.
On Saturday, it was more of the same ... only that time, they were in Brentwood looking at a mansion -- and seemed to be taking in the views from up on an elevated portion of the home, where they didn't really seem all that impressed -- at least outwardly.
These are just the latest stops Bennifer's made in their real estate search -- which has been kickstarted again after their deal for the coveted Bel Air estate fell through last week.
Since then, they've perused the Holmby Hills area as well as Bev Hills proper ... peeping massive compounds -- one owned by the ex-wife of Mr. Chow and another designed by Mohammed Hadid -- but it seems they haven't been able to make up their minds yet.
This, of course, comes after they walked away from the would-be $55 million purchase -- which they apparently felt wasn't right for them after entering escrow.
While these fancy abodes are sitting around for the picking among the rich and famous in L.A. -- there's probably a lot that's going into their decision beyond the crib ... especially with their kids in the picture still. So, they wanna make sure they choose correctly here.
Then again, they are set to get married ... so maybe there's a little urgency on the table. Don't wanna drag this out too long -- the engagement or the house-hunt, that is.
Decision, decisions!

George Harrison's Liverpool home has been recently renovated ... it's now an Airbnb thanks to superfan Ken Lambert. He snagged the property at auction back in November with a $250k bid.
The house doubles as a museum for weekly tours. The band rehearsed there in the late '50s -- back when they called themselves The Quarrymen.
Other band members' childhood homes have been preserved for tours as well ... including Paul McCartney's place in Allerton, a suburb of Liverpool. The house is owned by the National Trust and takes guests back in time to the way it looked when the bandmates were kids.
Paul and John Lennon birthed some classics at that house ... "I Saw Her Standing There" was written in the front room.
John's place on Menlove Ave. was the inspiration for "Please Please Me."
Maybe that talent will rub off if you take the tour!
