Olympic champion Jessica Ennis 'buys new £1m house'

Olympic champion Jessica Ennis has reportedly bought a new home worth £1m following her success at London 2012.

The 26-year-old, who came second in the BBC's Sports Personality of the Year awards, is believed to have bought a four-bedroom house just outside her hometown of Sheffield, according to the Daily Mail.

It is understood that the heptathlete, who won gold in the summer, will move out of her current £330,000 semi-detached home to move into the new pad with her fiance Andy Hill.

Reports have claimed that Ennis is close to making £3.5m in sponsorship deals.
