Behold Coco Austin And Ice-T's Gorgeous Home: Including Shoe Closet And Other Extras

Aug 26, 2021 by apost team

Ice-T is famous not only for his early rap career, in which he's known for '90s hits such as "New Jack Hustler," but also his work as an actor, in which he's famously played the role of NYPD Detective/Sergeant Tutuola on NBC's "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" since 2000.

But the entertainer is probably just as famous for his personal life, specifically his marriage to wife Coco Austin, otherwise known as Nicole Natalie Marrow. Married since 2002, the couple had their first child together in 2015 — a daughter named Chanel Nicole, who will turn 6 at the end of November.

Frequently posting about their lives on social media, Austin recently let fans into her beloved shoe closet with an Instagram post. Explaining that she was busy shooting the photos for next year's calendar, Austin posted the photos of herself wearing provocative lingerie while her excessive shoe collection served as the backdrop. And there is no doubt that the model loves shoes!

But it's not the first time the couple has let the public into their New Jersey mansion. Often posting on social media, the couple has shown their beloved bulldogs lounging around the house before, while in 2020 they let video cameras into their home and released a full house tour on YouTube. From the laundry room — which is Austin's favorite room in the house — and her extravagant shoe closet filled with Christian Louboutins to the couple's huge bed where they love to watch TV with the whole family, their home is filled with everything one could wish for. 

Posting to her Instagram account yesterday, Coco Austin showed off more than just her svelte figure. Standing in front of two floor-to-ceiling walls of shoes — many of which display Christian Louboutin's signature red soles — the model is dressed in sexy nude-illusion lingerie that's embellished with rhinestones. She captioned the two photos: 

"Been holding out on you guys lately.....Secretly shooting for next years calendar.. (not sure im gonna make the deadline we'll see) but I thought I slowly post "Behind the scenes pics" for you! I guess its not a secret anymore 🤐🤫😉"

She then added:

"My shoe closet is the most sexiest place I know so of course this had to be shot for one of the looks."

But although Austin's shoe closet might be the sexiest place she knows, the couple's entire house is slick and stylish by most people's standards. Located in New Jersey, the couple did a tour of their custom-built mansion last year. During the tour, they revealed their master bedroom, which they call both the "freak zone" and "one shade of black," as nearly everything in the room is black, including the mirrored black walls that give the illusion that one is floating. What's more, the huge windows that open to a private balcony feature full blackout blinds.

The accompanying master bath is just as extra, as it features a huge jacuzzi tub complete with colored lights, leading Austin to call it the "disco fever tub." Ice-T revealed that the tub even fits three people at the same time.

In the video, Austin showed off the "Coco store," which is her 550 square-foot closet, which houses both her shoe closet and all other attire. She also calls this part of the house her "Coco cave" and it's just as glam as she is. 

Fitted with leopard print carpet — which she expresses was rather hard to find — and furnished with red couches and a central table, it's unsurprising to learn that Austin's closet is full of incredibly colorful clothes. From a wall of sunglasses to racks and racks of garments, Coco explains that she starts her day by walking in there and asking herself what she'll wear that day.

But despite loving her closet, Austin told People in a 2020 interview that her favorite room of the house is actually the laundry room. She said in the interview:

“We have our own huge, red washer and dryer and when [Ice-T is] downstairs playing an Xbox, usually you’ll find me doing the laundry."

Considering she describes herself as "a shoe freak that loves 2 clean" in her Instagram bio, that's actually not all that surprising then. And which is Ice-T's favorite room you might ask? That would be the couple's bedroom. He told People:

“I got an 80-inch television [in there]. When I get home from work I go up to the bedroom, watch all my TV shows, chill out and [our baby, Chanel and our dog] are usually in bed with us too.”

Somehow both completely normal and wildly extravagant, the couple proves yet again why the public loves them so much.
