Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake left Hollywood to avoid getting ‘hammered’ by paparazzi

Jessica Biel spoke about why she and Justin Timberlake have opted to move away from the spotlight on the east and west coasts for something quieter in the country.

"I don't really think they necessarily respect that, you know, if we're out and about with our kids," the 42-year-old explained. "It can be somewhat country dependent, where if we're in this country, in the states, it's kind of like state by state, you know, you get hammered on the east coast, you kind of get hammered on the west coast. That's why we don't really live there anymore."

The actress continued, "It's just trying to create some normalcy for these kids, and we want to share our family with our loved ones and friends and also, we understand that our job has this major public-facing element, so we understand that part of it, but also these kids didn't choose this. I don't want to expose them in any way until they have an ability to make that decision for themselves, you know?"
