\u201cBeverly Hills, 90210\u201d star Jason Priestley recently raved about the \u201cease of operation\u201d his family has experienced since moving to Nashville from Los Angeles. Priestley and his wife Naomi decided to leave Los Angeles, but only if both of their children got into school in Nashville. He told E! News, \u201cMy wife and I just said to each other, \u2018If the kids get into school, we\u2019re going to Nashville!\u2019 And lo and behold, they both got in, so we moved, and we love it.\u201d<\/p>\n

For Priestley, it\u2019s just \u201ceasier to navigate\u201d life in Nashville. The 54-year-old actor noted that time moves more slowly now that they\u00a0aren\u2019t in Los Angeles. He explained, \u201cWe get four seasons instead of one season. Because you have markers and you know what time of year it is, it seems to make time go a little bit slower.\u00a0There was something about the homogeneity of Los Angeles, where it was, \u2018Is it March or is it October? I don\u2019t know, I can\u2019t really tell.\u2019 So time just kind of evaporates. Whereas living here, with four very distinct seasons, you have to take advantage of what the season is offering.\u201d<\/p>\n

Priestley and Naomi share two children, Ava and Dashiell. The couple first met while crossing a street in London. Priestley had been working in England for a job, while the English makeup artist had just graduated from college. They later married in 2005. Naomi gushed about Priestley on the About section of her website, calling their meeting \u201ctruly\u00a0serendipitous.\u201d<\/p>\n
