Gwyneth Paltrow Hangs In Childhood Home

There’s just something about your first house; the place in which you grew up, played Legos, watched your famous parents party with celebs…? Yeah, for Gwyneth Paltrow, her childhood home is so appealing, she’s renting it while she films her new movie.

The Oscar-winning actress almost completely lost it when her mom sold the house, located in Santa Monica, for almost $9 million. According to US Weekly, “Gwyneth couldn’t talk about it. She was very upset.” She lived there until she was 11 years old, and it evidently held some important memories.

Fast-forward a decade or two, and now she’s renting the childhood pad while she films Iron Man, a new project. The movie also stars Robert Downey Jr., Jeff Bridges, and Terrance Howard. Jon Favreau will be assuming the Director’s Chair.

According to a source, “They just had her daughter Apple’s third birthday party there.”

Gwyneth spends most of her time in the UK with her Coldplay star husband Chris Martin and their two children, daughter Apple and 13-month-old son Moses.
