This redesign followed Mitchell’s 2023 purchase of a near-new home in Ramsgate Beach, Southern Sydney. The property, built in 2018 at over $700,000, features five bedrooms, including a master suite with custom-built joinery and an ensuite.

What happened to Latrell Mitchell?
A string of controversies has shadowed Mitchell’s career. In April 2020, Mitchell violated the COVID-19 lockdown by going on a weekend camping trip with fellow NRL star Josh Addo-Carr. He was fined $1,000, followed by a hefty $50,000 penalty for violating self-isolation protocols and tarnishing the league's image. Addo-Carr was also investigated for the use of a firearm.
Later that year, Mitchell received a 12-month conditional release order from a Taree court after admitting to giving a firearm to someone without a proper license.
In 2021, Mitchell faced another setback, pleading guilty to an on-field incident that earned him a six-match suspension from the NRL.
Then came the 2024 scandal. A photo surfaced showing Mitchell hunched over a table with a white substance. This prompted the NRL Integrity Unit to issue a formal breach notice. He was fined $20,000 and banned for one match, while his club, South Sydney Rabbitohs, hit him with an additional $100,000 fine; $80,000 of which was suspended pending any further violations.
Although the suspension was initially set for Round 1 of the 2025 season, the NRL later approved his participation in the All Stars match to satisfy the ban, clearing him to play the season opener.
