“I wanted something away from L.A.,” the 38-year old told People magazine in May. “I love being an actor and I love the business, I really do, I’ve been in it my whole life. I know nothing else for 30-plus years. But I knew I needed a special place that wasn’t that and that felt more grounded, felt more real, felt more family-oriented because I do love that side of my life, but this is equally as important to me.”
“I was like, ‘I want my own ranch. I want my own place,'” she told me. “And I wanted a place for my family. My family’s family and my child and my brain.”
