“We fell in love with the beauty of the mountains and their quiet grandness,” says Ali.

Having spent her “whole adult life” in L.A., the Desperate Housewives alum now splits her time between Mexico and Spain, where she and husband José Bastón own a manse in Marbella.

“When I come here, I can breathe because there is no rush at all,” says Eva of the latter locale. “I can be on the beach with my son [Santiago] all day.”

Amanda Seyfried

The actress left L.A. for NYC and then NYC for upstate New York, where she lives on a farm with husband Thomas Sadoski, their children, Nina and Thomas, and a menagerie of animals.

“It offers a more balanced life than the city,” Amanda said of the “privacy, peace and nature” they get to enjoy.

His ticket out!

“The goal was always whenever I got enough traction out in L.A., I could return home,” the Top Gun: Maverick hunk said of moving back to Austin, Texas, where he lives only 30 minutes from his parents. “[They] just turned 70 and, you know, you want to enjoy every moment you have near your family.”
