LEMON'S HOME AND LIFESTYLE

In 2021, Lemon sold his New York Harlem three-bedroom condo years after he had purchased a quaint cottage in Sag Harbor. Being the smaller of his two spaces, he had configured the space as an open-concept layout with two bedrooms.

His 2,750 square-foot four-bedroom Sag Harbor house is considered his sanctuary. The decor and furnishings do not focus on any particular style or point of view, but it is an eclectic mix that keeps the atmosphere livable and relaxing.

He wanted a home and has created one that is warm, comfortable, and masculine. He believes that buying the house is one of the smartest things he has ever done as the house brings him joy and has changed his life.

He decided to live in Sag Harbor because he feels there is something spiritual about the place. He loves to hang around the village and even hosted friends to a festive barbecue in June 2021 for the annual Pride parade.

With him being very vocal about his beliefs in his news segment, not many people are fans of his luxurious lifestyle. He has been accused several times of flaunting his wealth and lifestyle as many people were suffering.

Some have questioned his decision to live in Sag Harbor, and they take to Twitter to express their opinions. One use once referred to him as "a VERY rich privileged elitist."

In 2019, he was sued by Dustin Hice for an unprovoked and offensive assault that allegedly occurred at Murf's Backstreet Tavern in Sag Harbor in July 2018. This is a claim categorically denied by Lemon.

A CNN spokesperson had said that the plaintiff had previously displayed a pattern of contempt and had unsuccessfully threatened and demanded exorbitant sums from Lemon.
