Are Ben and Jen moving in together?
According to Mail Online , the couple has decided to rent Brooke Shields’ home in Los Angeles together, where they will live with their three children, Violet, 9, Seraphina, 6, and Samuel, 3. The two will be renting the home for an unknown amount of time while the current home they own undergoes extensive renovations.
Although the two are separated, they have decided to live under the same roof to ensure that things stay as normal as possible for their children. The two have also both kept their wedding rings on post-split announcement.
“They both put on their happy faces and don’t show any signs of anger or frustration. They definitely play happy family in front of the kids,” said a source.
News that Ben and Jen are moving in together hit the internet on Wednesday. According to Yahoo! News , Ben and Jen are currently in Atlanta with their brood, as Jen is filming Miracles From Heaven there. The report indicates that the couple will move their family into Shields’ home when they get back to Los Angeles.
“The house is a few doors away from Ben and Jennifer’s home that they bought for a squillion dollars ($17.5 million to be precise) back in 2009. They have been extensively renovating it for the past few months and are, understandably, not terribly excited about the prospect of moving back into a building site.”
It is unknown how long Ben and Jen plan to continue living together, but they have decided that this set up was best for their family. While they do have their own issues, they both seem willing to put their differences aside to ensure that their children have both of their parents around as much as possible. There won’t be any “weekend visits from dad” for the time being.
As previously reported by the Inquisitr , this hasn’t been an easy thing for Ben and Jen to go through, but they are handling their split the best way that they can. The two took a family trip to the Bahamas after announcing their decision to split, and sources say that the two were very emotional.
“Ben was picking strands of grass out of the ground and he had a hard time looking at Jen. He was rubbing his eyes and seemed very upset. They sat there for about two minutes in complete silence. Then they said a few words but looked away again,” said a witness.
Do you think Ben and Jen moving in together and living under one roof is a good idea?
