Is America Ferrera leaving Hollywood?
Although America Ferrera’s move to the UK is primarily for her family’s benefit, she reportedly has no intention of leaving her Hollywood career or advocacy work behind.
According to the insider, the ‘Barbie’ star plans to maintain a presence in the US to continue her acting career and fight for causes close to her heart, particularly for Latinas and women.
“She is going to continue to have a presence in the US for work purposes and to fight for Latinas and women, but she will be overseas for family and to benefit her kids’ education,” claimed the source.
