Jonah Hill is stepping away from Hollywood, but not for himself.
The actor recently opened up about his decision to raise his kids away from Los Angeles with his wife, Olivia Millar.
Shouting Out Wife
Hill appeared on the April 25th SiriusXM taping of the SmartLess podcast. He shared why he moved to San Diego to raise his kids instead of staying in Los Angeles, and also talked about his own experiences growing up in Los Angeles.
However, before Hill and hosts Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes, and Will Arnett got into the conversation, he shouted out a special someone.
“So real quick, before we go any further, my wife is here. My best friend. Shout-out to my beautiful wife, Liv. Where is she? Oh, what’s up, baby?”
The couple sparked romance rumors back in 2022, and the following year, Millar showed off her baby bump.
People confirmed in April 2026 that Hill and Millar are married, and the couple recently welcomed their second baby.
Moving to San Diego
After his love-filled shout-out, Jonah Hill got down to business, describing their current living situation.
“So I live in a very small town in San Diego, and it’s amazing, and my neighbors are incredible people. When we had our first kid, we moved out there three years ago.”
He continued, “I wanted to leave L.A. and raise a family outside of Los Angeles.” Hill is still able to travel back and forth for work when need be.
Along with sharing his living situation, Hill praised how “cool” and “incredible” his neighbors are.
He shared, “They never treat me weird or ask me about my job or anything. My neighbor is one of my great friends, Dr. Sean, he never asked. He’s here tonight. He never bothered me or was like, ‘Oh, what’s this person like?'”
Growing Up in L.A.
Hill later reflected on his own upbringing in Los Angeles.
“I grew up here. L.A. was such a cool place to grow up in the ’90s because you could go skateboard downtown or you could sneak into a movie premiere or you could go sneak into a comedy club and see Chris Rock or something.”
He added, “You had access to show business stuff, but you had access to punk and skating and graffiti and all the naughty stuff. And there was no internet. It was just so awesome.”
