'Landman' star Ali Larter says life in Idaho is 'simpler' after ditching Los Angeles

"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 that her summer months look "totally different" now that she's 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 concluded.

Larter and Hayes MacArthur share two children: son, Teddy, 15, and daughter, Vivienne, 11.

During an interview with Fox News Digital in November, Larter shared the exact moment she and her husband realized they wanted to stay in Idaho – after moving there during the COVID-19 lockdown.

"We went for two months thinking that the kids' schools would be reopened in California, and they weren't," she recalled. "And so they were doing online, and the schools there were open. 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. "And living in the town and just skiing with our children. And we really spent a tremendous amount of time together as a family."

After living in Idaho during the latter half of the school year, Larter and her family returned to Los Angeles for the summer, and they realized that "there are so many demands as an actor" when living in the city.

She explained that actors not only audition frequently but are "expected to show up for so many things," including parties and charity events. While she loves L.A. and says her "heart will always be there," she wanted a more family-focused lifestyle.

"We just didn't want to do that. We wanna be with our children," she said. "And so that's when I think the biggest change was we came back after that summer, and we just made a go for it and said, 'Let's try this and see if it works.'"

Larter attended the Newport Beach TV Fest that honored "Landman," in which she plays Angela, Billy Bob Thornton's recently reconciled ex-wife. On the red carpet, Larter told Fox News Digital that Angela is a "wildcat" and she wishes she could channel her a little bit more in everyday life.
