Mark Wahlberg recently told The Talk his reasons for moving his family from California to Nevada.

"I moved to California many years ago to pursue acting, and I've only made a couple of movies in the entire time that I was there." Wahlberg started dating supermodel Rhea Durham in 2001, and they had three children in the course of their relationship. Also, in 2009, he tied the knot with his long-time girlfriend, and their union was blessed with his fourth baby in less than a year.
