A-list Hollywood couple reveal plans to relocate to London as they look to trade Los Angeles for a 'colder place'
Chrissy Teigen and her husband John Legend have revealed their plans to relocate to London.
The A-list Hollywood couple, who currently reside in Los Angeles, recently admitted that their looking to live in a 'colder place.'
Chrissy and John share four children, Luna, nine, Miles, seven, and Wren, 23-months, and Esti, two, who 'love' the UK after spending the last few Christmas ' in London.
Speaking in a new interview, the singer, discussed the possibility of leaving his $17.5 million Beverly Hills home.
John told The Sun: 'We love it here. Chrissy loves it and the kids love it. We spent our last Christmas here and two or three Christmases ago we were here as well.'

He added: 'We like to be in a colder place. We don't like to be in Los Angeles for Christmas.
'We always talk about the possibility of moving to New York or London. Those are two cities that we would definitely consider living in. We love walking cities.'
Earlier this year, John revealed that he and wife Chrissy were considering making a permanent move out of Los Angeles following the devastating wildfires.
The Eaton and Palisades Fires, which sparked on January 7, destroyed nearly 17,000 structures and killing at least 29 people.
The couple were among the A-list residents forced to flee their home, taking shelter in a luxury hotel along with their four children.
Fortunately, their $17.5 million Beverly Hills home was not damaged by the blaze.
However, the musician admitted that there is now a 'collective trauma' in the area that has made the couple seriously consider relocating to New York.
Speaking to The Wall Street Journal, John explained: 'Chrissy and I have always considered returning to New York, where we once lived. We probably will, once our youngest ones grow up a bit.'
Reflecting on the impact of natural disasters in the area over recent years, Legend continued: 'Every time nature shows its wrath, we wonder if it's time to head back east. Who knows?'
The couple and their children had only just returned home from a vacation on January 7, with the Palisades Fire starting to ravage the city just hours later.
In the interview, the singer recalled seeing the flames and billowing smoke from the Palisades fire and noted how their 'fears grew' after watching the devastation on TV.
'When the Sunset fire began to expand on January 9, the danger felt too close for comfort,' he continued.
'That night, my wife and I gathered our four kids, four dogs and bearded dragon and drove south to a hotel in Carlsbad.'
At the time, Chrissy has shared photos of her and John sheltering in the room, and also highlighted that their pets were with them too when she posted clips featuring bearded dragon Sebastian.
John added: 'We didn't return until the following week. Our home was safe, but many weren't so fortunate, and the threat still looms.
'The fires were a collective trauma that shook everyone, including our kids.'
The move would be a U-turn for the couple after they chose to sell their Manhattan units in 2022.
Located in the Nolita neighborhood, their two penthouses were sold for $18 million.
The couple bought the first penthouse unit for $9 million in 2018 and the second in 2020 for $7.7 million, according to property records.

Sleep problem that affects 10million could trigger deadliest cancer - first major study to spot the link
Severe snorers may be at higher risk of one of Britain's deadliest cancer, shock new research has suggested. It is already known that patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), which often causes problem snoring, may be more likely to develop cancer. Now, one of the world's first trials exploring the condition and lung cancer specifically has found a 'significant' link between the two. US researchers, who assessed the health records of more than 2.4million adults, said they cannot be sure exactly why the common sleep disorder raises this risk. But they believe it may be due to the lack of oxygen people get during the night - or lifestyle factors including smoking and even obesity. Presenting the findings at the American Society of Clinical Oncology conference in Chicago, scientists urged policymakers to consider screening those with the condition for the disease and tackle sleep apnea early, soon after a diagnosis. OSA, which impacts nearly a billion people worldwide, causes the walls of the throat to relax and narrow or close for a few seconds during sleep. This triggers breathing pauses and loud snoring. Up to 3.9 million people in the UK are estimated to have moderate or severe OSA, although it is considered to be under-diagnosed affecting up to 10million. Not all snorers have sleep apnoea, but the two often go hand in hand, and the louder the snoring, the greater the chances of having it. In the study, researchers at Marshall University in West Virginia, tracked lung cancer diagnoses separating those diagnosed with OSA and those without. After accounting for factors that could skew the results, such as age and other diagnosed health conditions, they found OSA patients were 1.21 times more likely to develop lung cancer compared to those without OSA. Dr Jowan Al-Nusair, study co-author and physician at Marshall University told MailOnline it was 'one of the first statistically significant studies' to prove a link between the condition and lung cancer. 'While further studies are definitely now needed to investigate just how the significant the link truly is, this suggests OSA may be a preventable risk factor for lung cancer. 'We should be more closely monitoring patients with OSA. Patients would definitely benefit from screening and early intervention to combat OSA. 'Additional studies are essential to understand exactly why OSA may increase this risk. 'We really hope this will pave the way for future research and testing.' Lung cancer strikes around 50,000 people in the UK and 230,000 in the US every year. It is the world's biggest cancer killer. It is notoriously difficult to diagnose and often appears later when it's harder to treat. Figures show it kills four out of five patients within five years. Fewer than 10 per cent of people survive their disease for a decade or more. Despite the progress, a disparity among sexes is emerging, with women between the ages of 35 and 54 being diagnosed with lung cancer at higher rates than men in that same age group. Science has long established that smoking definitively causes lung cancer and is the primary risk factor for the disease. But lung cancer rates, which have been dropping for decades as the world weans off tobacco, are also now rising in young, otherwise healthy people who've never smoked. Experts told MailOnline the disease should not be viewed as 'an old person's disease' — as it was previously seen. Speaking at ASCO it was also suggested diet, changes in exercise habits and changes in work patterns could play a part in this increased risk. It comes as a study by The Sleep Charity last year found nine in ten people experience some sort of sleep problem. Poor sleep has been linked to a number of health problems, including cancer, stroke and infertility. Experts have long advised that waking up during the night does not necessarily mean you have insomnia, which figures suggest affects up to 14million Brits. Still, sleep deprivation takes its own toll, from irritability and reduced focus in the short term, to an increased risk of obesity, heart disease and diabetes.

Urgent warning after two suspected opioid deaths at the weekend: Met Police urge Brits to take care after pills '500 times stronger than heroin' are feared to be being used in nightclubs
An urgent warning has been issued after two people died in a suspected synthetic opioid overdose following a night out over the weekend. A man, 28, and woman, 20, are thought to have taken Nitazenes, believed to be up to 500 times stronger than heroin, after partying at a south London nightclub during the Spring Bank Holiday weekend. Their bodies were later discovered at a property in Southall, west London, after a concerned friend was unable to wake the pair. The Met Police confirmed an investigation into their 'sudden deaths' had commenced but no arrests had been made yet. The force added: 'This is following reports that the individuals allegedly passed away after taking an illicit substance in the form of a green pill.' Drug testing charity The Loop has suggested these pills contain Nitazenes, which can be '50 to 500 times stronger than heroin'. The organisation added that they are often sold under the pretence that they are oxycodone, a highly addictive prescription painkiller. A theory is that the pair thought they were taking oxycodone to assist them in getting to sleep, The Times reports. World famous south London club Ministry Of Sound warned its customers to 'stay safe' last week, just days after the deaths over Bank Holiday weekend. The pills taken by the users over the weekend had the number 80 on one side and possibly an 'OP' on the other, Ealing Council said. The Cause nightclub in east London has taken to its Instagram account to claim there had been 'several hospitalisations across multiple London venues' associated with the pills. MailOnline has approached the London Ambulance Service (LAS) to verify this statement. The Met Police has also been contacted for comment. An Ealing Council spokesperson told people to avoid taking the pills 'even in small amounts' and that people considering consuming them should not do so by themselves. Users should also think about carrying naloxone - an opioid overdose antidote. Nitazenes were first created in the 1950s as opioid painkillers but were never approved for medical use. For 70 years, their existence was forgotten. Then, after Britain and America's withdrawal from Afghanistan - and the Taliban's subsequent narcotics ban - they re-emerged as a way to strengthen low-purity heroin in case opium supplies dwindled. Experts are united in their fear of the rising risk of nitazenes. Yet, while heroin users are still vulnerable, young people buying traditionally legal drugs such as Valium and Xanax as coping mechanisms are also at risk. In fact, MailOnline analysis of data from the UK's only drug testing facility Wedinos has revealed that two-thirds of samples that contained nitazenes were supposed to be legal medications that could be purchased legally. Two-thirds of that total were bought by people intending to buy Valium (diazepam). So far, the number of nitazene-related deaths only stands at 458 in the last two years, up to April 13. However, there was a 166 per cent increase from 2023 (125 deaths) to 2024 (333 deaths) - more than double in a single year, and even that total is expected to rise once toxicology and forensic testing improves and is finalised. Steve Rolles, a senior policy analyst at the Transform Drug Policy Foundation, told MailOnline: 'The number of deaths is rising at an alarming rate. It's the tip of the iceberg. 'What has happened in the US should be a warning to policymakers in the UK. We could be heading to a US-style overdose crisis. We are talking thousands or tens of thousands dying. 'All the indications are that is what is happening. I'm very wary of scaremongering about drugs but I'm deeply worried about the potential carnage opioids could do in the UK. 'We already have the highest overdose rate in Europe. Nitazenes could make it way, way worse. 'This is a very serious public health emergency that's not being taken seriously enough.' He added: 'I am scared. There's almost one person dying every day from nitazenes and most people haven't even heard of it. 'If it was anything else, there would be national panic. The government hasn't grasped the urgency of this.' Rolles is starting to see heroin mixed with nitazenes on the streets of Britain. He said: 'It does seem it's getting more [prevalent] as the heroin supply dries up.'

Revealed: The tip-off that gives Maddie McCann police their last chance to keep Brueckner behind bars – as German FBI bring in radar to scour trenches and fields looking for the missing Brit girl
Land near the former home of the main suspect in the disappearance of Madeleine McCann is to be searched by police this week. Last night roads were closed and tents set up between the resort in Portugal where the three-year-old vanished 18 years ago, and a house nearby where Christian Brueckner once lived. Prime suspect Brueckner, 48, is in prison in Germany serving seven years for rape and the request for yet another search was made by German police. At least 30 agents from Germany's FBI, the BKA, acted on a tip-off and arrived at the idyllic Portuguese resort. An investigating source told the Sun: 'Following Brueckner's trial last year someone contacted them with theories on where anyone who took Madeleine might've dumped her. 'They told cops about trenches that were dug in Praia at the time Madeleine disappeared, and the house where Brueckner had lived on the edge of the village. 'Of course, all of these places have been searched over and over again, but now they have a new weapon in their ground-scanning radar. It means they don't need to dig for the sake of it. But as soon as they spot anything of interest they are ready to excavate and check it.' They are equipped with ground-penetrating radar technology that can scan up to 15ft below the surface of the ground. A well-placed Portuguese source said: 'The search will take place on 21 privately owned pieces of land which in some cases are not fenced off. 'Wells, ruins and water storage tanks will be searched.' The operation on property between Praia da Luz and a rented cottage on the outskirts of the resort town where Brueckner lived for several years before 2007 is expected to continue until Friday – unless new evidence about Madeleine's disappearance is unearthed. German forensic officers will be accompanying the latest investigation, which will look into wells, ruins and water storage tanks in the area. Portugal's Policia Judiciaria, which has led the hunt for Madeleine, confirmed that the request to search the area was made by German authorities. A source added: 'The search warrant was issued by the Braunschweig Public Prosecutor's Office, which is conducting preliminary proceedings against a German citizen suspected of the murder of British citizen Madeleine Beth McCann, who disappeared from a holiday resort in Praia da Luz on May 3, 2007. 'All the evidence seized by the PJ will… be handed over to the agents of the German Federal Criminal Police Service.' It will be the first search in Portugal for more than two years, following a week-long operation involving Portuguese and German officers at a remote dam a 40-minute-drive from Praia da Luz. The searches in May 2023 at Arade Dam – a spot that Brueckner reportedly called his 'little paradise' – came to nothing. That followed a June 2014 operation when British police were given permission to carry out digs in Praia da Luz. Those digs were linked to a UK police theory that Madeleine died during a break-in and burglars hid her body nearby. Despite the use of sniffer dogs trained in detecting bodies and ground-penetrating radar, it also failed to produce any evidence pointing to the youngster's whereabouts. In a smaller operation in July 2020 Portuguese police and firefighters searched three wells for Madeleine's body but failed to find any trace of her. Brueckner is under investigation on suspicion of abduction and murder in the Madeleine case but has denied any involvement. While German investigators made the unusual move of naming him as a suspect in the case, he has not been charged. Brueckner's prison term is set to end with his release this September – much earlier than prosecutors had hoped for after he was acquitted of unrelated sexual offences last October. He is no longer being held in solitary confinement as he nears the end of his sentence. 'The clock is against the case here and investigators do not want to see Brueckner walk free,' a source told The Sun. A spokesman for Scotland Yard said that it was aware of the searches but it was not taking part in them.
