It’s been a big week for Georgina Bloomberg — and she has so much more to come. Not only did the 41-year-old equestrian daughter of former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg take to Instagram late last week to share news of her near-term pregnancy, but she also just became the new owner of an East End home.
