Since being married, her love of horses and equestrianism has spread to her husband. While he does not compete, the couple has been spotted at the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center watching the showjumping of the Winter Equestrian Festival.

To further support his wife's love of horses and sports involving horses, Billy Joel dropped an exorbitant amount of $3.5 million and bought her beautifully maintained five-acre farm where she could keep the equestrian horses that she already owned, buy more and continue practising her riding. The ranch is designed for horses that specialize in dressage, an equestrian sport where horse and rider are expected to perform predetermined movements and walks from memory.
