Change of scenery: Mark Wahlberg, 51, spoke about moving out of Los Angeles and uprooting his family for Nevada to give them a 'better life' during an appearance on The Talk on Tuesday; seen in 2015Although Wahlberg had lived in his Beverly Hills mansion for more than a decade, he described his time in California almost as if it was a missed opportunity.'I want to be able to work from home.

I moved to California many years ago to pursue acting and I’ve only made a couple of movies in the entire time that I was there,' he explained. 'So, to be able to give my kids a better life and follow and pursue their dreams whether it be my daughter as an equestrian, my son as a basketball player, my younger son as a golfer, this made a lot more sense for us.'Wahlberg — who shares Ella, 19; Michael, 16; Brendan, 14; and Grace, 12, with his wife Rhea Durham, 44 — may have only been referring to films shot near his home or in California, as he has starred in around 30 films since purchasing his Beverly Hills land in 2009.
