Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow are making a move across the pond in hope of a little sunshine, rest and recreation, Breaking Celebrity News is exclusively reporting.

The pair, who recently splashed out $10.45 million on a luxury mansion in Brentwood’s Mandeville Canyon, have enquired about private schools in the area for kids Apple and Moses as they plan to spend an extended time in Los Angeles away from the gloom and rain of what has been their permanent base in London, England.

“Chris and Gwyneth have wanted to move to Los Angeles for a while,” a source said.

“Gwyneth spends a lot time between the UK and the U.S. and she’s exhausted with all the traveling. The purpose of buying the lavish home in Brentwood was to make that a semi-permanent base.

“She also spends a lot of time away from her mom, Blythe Danner and wants to be closer to her as she gets older. Chris was very understanding and is willing to give living in Los Angeles a chance because he’s always loved the city. Chris' band won't be working on a new album for at least another year so he has some breathing space to kick back.
