Fame doesn't always mean fast-paced city life and red carpets. While the public often associates celebrities with luxury penthouses and private jets, many stars have found peace, balance, and joy away from the spotlight, on quiet, sprawling farms. Whether it’s Pennsylvania countryside or the heart of Texas, these well-known names are choosing fresh air, homegrown food, and animal-filled mornings over the chaos of Hollywood. And they’re not just vacationing—they’re living the lifestyle year-round.
Let’s take a closer look at the celebrities who are quietly thriving and enjoying farm life, and why it works for them.
1. Gigi Hadid
Gigi Hadid may have started her career on fashion’s biggest runways, but her roots and current lifestyle are far more grounded. She now spends much of her time on a 32-acre farm in rural Pennsylvania, which she shares with her mother, Yolanda Hadid.
This peaceful escape features a classic white farmhouse accented with raw wooden beams, adding rustic charm without trying too hard. Outside, there’s a fully functioning kitchen garden and enough room for their horses, goats, and chickens. The property feels lived-in and loved—more family farm than fashion retreat.
2. David and Victoria Beckham

The Beckhams traded bustling city life for the calm of the English countryside back in 2014. Their estate in the Cotswolds isn't just a quiet getaway—it’s a functioning country home, complete with a chicken coop, bee hives, and even a personal soccer pitch.
David often shares snippets from their farm days, offering glimpses of chicken tending and garden upkeep. Inside, the home is refined with a British countryside aesthetic—classic, cozy, and full of personality. It’s the perfect blend of rustic and refined, much like the couple themselves.
3. Jared Padalecki
Best known for his roles in "Supernatural" and "Gilmore Girls", Jared Padalecki left Los Angeles behind to return to Texas. He and his wife, Genevieve, designed their family home near Austin with help from designer Virginia Davidson. Their modern farmhouse is both stylish and warm, packed with color, texture, and personal touches like bold tilework and bookshelves filled to the brim.
Outside, the couple’s three kids enjoy the animals and open space, while the home’s interior remains true to the Texan ranch style, with exposed rafters and layered patterns that make the space feel lively and lived-in.
4. Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder
Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder have created a sustainable sanctuary just outside Santa Barbara. Their farm, completed in late 2023, reflects the couple’s values—natural materials, simple living, and privacy. Furnished largely in partnership with Arhaus, the home combines mid-century design with California cool.
Reed, now focused on her sustainable jewelry brand, fills the space with handcrafted pieces and earthy accents. Their farm isn’t just a home—it’s a statement about balance and intentional living.
5. Prince Harry and Meghan
Since relocating from London to California in 2020, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have slowly opened the door to their relaxed life in Santa Barbara. While the Netflix series "With Love, Meghan" wasn’t filmed at their house, Meghan has shared a few glimpses of their property.
The kitchen, designed with European influences, reflects their love of simple, quality living. Outside, their famously named chicken coop, "Chick Inn," is a favorite for both the couple and their kids. It’s calm, sunlit, and far from royal formality.
6. Adrien Grenier
After decades in New York City, "Entourage" star Adrien Grenier relocated to a 46-acre ranch near Austin. Dubbed Kintsugi Ranch, the property isn't just a home—it's a wildlife sanctuary and a platform for sustainable innovation. Grenier has focused on renewable energy, outfitting the home with solar panels and building it in a Spanish hacienda-meets-Moroccan style.
The interiors are laid-back but meaningful, filled with handmade items and neutral palettes. Through his platform Earth Speed, he continues to promote sustainable farming and intentional living.
7. Millie Bobby Brown

Millie Bobby Brown might be one of Hollywood’s busiest young stars thanks to "Stranger Things" and "Enola Holmes", but her personal life couldn’t be more peaceful. The actress lives on a farm near Atlanta with her husband, Jake Bongiovi, and their rescued animals.
In fact, she even built an animal rescue nearby. She’s shared how her farm life brings comfort and purpose: “I’m not doing this to show off a lifestyle—I genuinely love it,” she said in an interview. The land gives her a break from the spotlight and lets her focus on what matters most.
8. Josh Duhamel
Josh Duhamel, who stars in "Ransom Canyon", has never really left his North Dakota roots behind. Today, he splits his time between work and a lakefront property in Minnesota, where he lives with his wife, Audra Mari, and their sons. His cabin setup is rustic and real, with one room decorated using wallpaper made from old newspaper clippings.
He’s also transformed another space into a DIY speakeasy where friends gather during long weekends. “It’s where we go to breathe,” he shared during a tour with Graham Bensinger. The vibe? Low-key, hands-on, and totally relaxed.
A Quiet Trend With Staying Power
As much as the glitz of celebrity life grabs attention, these stars are proving there’s something genuinely fulfilling about farm life. Whether it’s growing their own food, raising animals, or simply enjoying the quiet, these celebrities have embraced a way of life that’s grounded and intentional. Far from temporary retreats, these farms are full-time homes, each reflecting a unique personal style and deeper desire for simplicity.
These celebrities may still walk red carpets, but they’ve made it clear that they’re just as comfortable in work boots as they are in designer shoes.
