Ali Larter's Idaho Move Sparks Curiosity: A Simpler Life Revealed
“Landman” star Ali Larter finds her summers in Idaho to be a lot “simpler” than when she used to live in Los Angeles.At the Newport Beach TV Fest, Larter told Fox News Digital her summer months look “totally different” since she made the move to Sun Valley, Idaho, in 2020.“Well, it’s totally different, so we can’t really get our kids to hike anymore. They don’t want to do that. But I can get them to take a bike ride and then do, like, a little cold plunge in the river,” Larter began.“We love to barbecue at our house. We love to play with our dogs. My daughter will probably play some volleyball. We’ll go to Leroy’s and get an ice cream cone.“It’s just kind of simpler, and the days are really long. The sun’s out till like 10 at night now, so it’s been really beautiful to kind of have the kids out of school and enjoy the time with them.”Larter and Hayes MacArthur share two children — son Teddy, 15, and daughter, Vivienne, 11.Ali Larter ditched Los Angeles for a “simpler” life in Sun Valley, Idaho, with her family.

And, so, we were able to put our 6-year-old daughter in kindergarten for the spring semester.“And that was a huge thing for us because we just wanted her to be around other children and have that kindergarten experience. And during that time, we met some amazing families just organically by the school,” she continued.Larter and husband Hayes MacArthur share two children — son Teddy, 15, and daughter, Vivienne, 11 Instagram/alilarter“And living in the town and just skiing with our children.
