BREAKING: Joe Manganiello and fiancée Caitlin O’Connor have officially left Los Angeles for Pittsburgh, marking a significant life change for the couple. The move comes as NBC has just canceled Manganiello’s game show Deal or No Deal Island, adding urgency to their relocation.
In a recent interview, O’Connor confirmed that they are now residents of Mount Lebanon, a suburb of Pittsburgh. Although she described the move as “recent,” she emphasized that it had been a long-planned decision. “I mean, L.A. has been both of our homes for over 20 years,” O’Connor stated. Notably, both she and Manganiello hail from Pittsburgh, making this transition a return to their roots.
O’Connor expressed her excitement about their new neighborhood, calling it “picture-perfect” and “idyllic.” She stated, “I’ve never been in a more beautiful neighborhood in Pittsburgh. It feels safe and welcoming.” This emotional connection to their hometown seems to be a significant factor in their decision to relocate.
Despite their departure from the glitz of Hollywood, the couple plans to frequently travel back to Los Angeles for work commitments. O’Connor shared a humorous anecdote about adjusting to the winter weather, revealing, “I mean, I watched Joe shovel snow in our driveway for two-and-a-half hours yesterday. And it was the hottest thing I’ve ever seen.”
As the holiday season approaches, the couple is preparing for a big family celebration in Pittsburgh, inviting parents and friends to join them for Christmas festivities. This move not only signifies a change in residence but also a return to family and community ties, enhancing their emotional landscape during this festive time.
As fans and followers of the couple reflect on this new chapter, their relocation underscores a significant shift in priorities. With the cancellation of Deal or No Deal Island, it seems the couple is embracing a lifestyle that prioritizes family and a sense of belonging over Hollywood glamour.
Stay tuned for further updates on Manganiello and O’Connor as they navigate this exciting transition. Their journey back to Pennsylvania is not just about a change of scenery but also a profound life shift that many can relate to, especially during the holidays.
