Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell has made the decision to sell his family's suburban home in Bloomfield Hills after concerns over privacy and safety arose. The decision came after amateur sleuths discovered the location of their residence, prompting a series of pranks that left Campbell worried about his family's well-being. The coach and his wife had been enjoying their time in Bloomfield Hills, but a string of incidents following the Lions' loss to the Dallas Cowboys triggered the move to a more secluded location in Oakland County.
Campbell's tenure has seen a remarkable transformation for the Lions, who have gone from being perennial underdogs to legitimate Super Bowl contenders. Under Campbell's leadership, the team has made significant improvements, with their record improving from 3-13 to 9-8 and then to an impressive 12-5 in his first three seasons as coach. Despite the team's success on the field, off-field incidents like the invasion of their privacy have forced the Campbell family to make changes to ensure their safety.
Ashley Crain, who represented the Campbells in the sale of their former home, revealed that the pranks they experienced went beyond mere nuisances and bordered on being "scary." One incident involved individuals posing as handymen in an attempt to gain access to their property while their teenage daughter was home alone. The situation understandably left Campbell and his family feeling uneasy, prompting the decision to relocate to a more secure and harder-to-find location. The family has since settled into their new residence in an effort to regain their privacy and peace of mind.
The Campbells' former Bloomfield Hills home, described by Campbell as "beautiful," has been listed for sale at $4.5 million. The move to a more secluded location signifies the challenges that come with fame and success in the world of professional sports. Despite the setbacks faced by the coach and his family, they are focused on maintaining a sense of security and normalcy in their daily lives as they continue to navigate the spotlight that comes with leading a high-profile NFL team.
