Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell Announce Move from L.A. After Back-to-Back Burglaries
Longtime Hollywood couple Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell have revealed they are officially leaving Los Angeles following two unsettling burglaries that shook their sense of safety and privacy. The couple, who have been together for over four decades, made the announcement in an emotional interview, explaining that recent events forced them to reconsider their future in the city they’ve called home for years.
According to Hawn, the final straw came when their L.A. residence was broken into for the second time in just a matter of months. The first incident reportedly occurred while the couple was out for dinner. The second, far more disturbing, happened while they were at home—though thankfully unhurt, the intrusion left a deep psychological impact.
“We’ve loved L.A. for so many years,” Hawn said. “It’s where we built our careers, where we raised our kids. But when your sanctuary no longer feels safe, it’s time to make a change.”
The pair noted that the burglaries weren’t just financially damaging—they left them feeling vulnerable in a way neither expected. Hawn admitted that she’s struggled to sleep since the incidents, and Russell added that the idea of remaining in a home where their sense of security had been violated was “unthinkable.”
The couple did not specify exactly where they are moving, but insiders say they are eyeing a property in Colorado, where they have long owned a vacation home. The mountain town offers them peace, privacy, and a chance to live a more low-key lifestyle, far from the eyes of paparazzi and the pressures of L.A. living.
Russell, who was raised in Thousand Oaks, California, expressed some sadness about leaving the state, but emphasized the importance of peace of mind. “We’ll always love California, but we want to wake up and feel peace. We’re not 30 anymore—we don’t want to feel like we’re looking over our shoulders in our own home.”
In recent years, celebrity burglaries have been on the rise in L.A., with stars like Drake, Miley Cyrus, and Alanis Morissette also falling victim to home invasions. Experts cite the increased visibility of celebrity homes on social media and real estate sites, as well as the growing sophistication of burglary rings.
Friends of the couple say this decision has been building for some time, with the break-ins serving as a catalyst. “Goldie and Kurt are incredibly private,” said one source close to the family. “They’re not the Hollywood party scene. They value nature, family, and quiet time. This move is more in line with who they really are.”
While fans might be disappointed that the beloved Hollywood duo will be further from the spotlight, the move signals a new chapter—one where safety, simplicity, and serenity take center stage.
“We’re not running away,” Hawn said. “We’re just choosing peace.”
