A-list Hollywood star reveals she lives in ‘modest’ Montana home

Glenn Close has swapped New York City for Bozeman, Montana

Glenn Close has revealed she has left New York City behind in favor of small-town Montana.

The Emmy, Tony and Golden Globe-winning actor, 77, is known for her iconic roles in films such as Fatal Attraction and 101 Dalmatians and can currently be seen in the new Netflix action-comedy Back in Action.

In a new interview with The Wall Street Journal, Close said she moved to the town of 57,000 in 2019 to be closer to her family.

“Today, my home is in Bozeman, Montana,” she said. “All of my siblings live here. My modest, 1892 brick house has a porch where I can see the mountains and say hi to neighbors.”

Her 2,316 square-foot home has three bedrooms and three bathrooms and is close to the town center.

However, Close did add that she plans to construct a bigger house nearby.

“I’m building a larger house about a half-hour outside of town,” she said. “It’s going to be my Zen farmhouse and our family sanctuary. In the back will be a stone cottage, reminding me of the best years of my childhood.”

In a previous 2021 interview with Mountain Outlaw magazine, Close said she “never used to get homesick” before moving to Bozeman.

“Not only is Bozeman my home, but I couldn’t wait to get back here. When I left to go to that job, [her sisters] Jessie and Tina were there to see me off at the airport. It was so great. I’ve come to realize how much I dread going away,” continued Close.

“When I was little, I got solace in nature, and that has never changed. I always tried to create that same potential for my family, especially now to come back here and be with my siblings and have a piece of land outside of town that will always be here for my daughter and her children.

“That’s my legacy. I just feel incredibly lucky. I do think these will be the best years of my life.”

Earlier this month, Glenn Close hit out at JD Vance during an appearance on The View. She previously starred in a film based on his book about his life, Hillbilly Elegy.

When co-host Joy Behar noted Vance “had a whole different personality in those days than he has now”, Close said: “I don’t know what happened”, suggesting that political success might have altered his outlook.

“Power is probably the biggest aphrodisiac for a human being,” she told Behar.
