Peta Murgatroyd and Maksim Chmerkovskiy have left Los Angeles for Florida.
The “Dancing With the Stars” alums made the decision to leave LA and move to Boca Raton with their three sons — Shai, 9, Rio, 3, and Milan, 1 — and documented their emotional journey in a YouTube video Murgatroyd posted Monday.
Murgatroyd, 39, and Chmerkovskiy, 46, also shared a video on Instagram of themselves crying in a car with their moving boxes in the backseat.
She wrote, “There are tears you don’t expect, goodbyes that hit harder than you imagined, and moments where you wonder if you’re making the right decision.”
The pro dancer said she knew she and her husband made “the best decision” for their family.
In another Instagram post, Murgatoyd said all the hardships of moving were worth it.
She shared of her family’s time in Florida so far, “The happiness, the slower pace, the sunshine, watching our boys love every second of it … it’s everything we hoped for and more.”
In her YouTube video, the two-time “DWTS” champ was emotional as she documented looking at their family’s empty home in LA after they had packed up their belongings.

“It’s been a fun ride, LA,” she said of her home of 16 years. “But we have to move on to new things, new life and new adventures, and make new memories.”
The move wasn’t without any hiccups. Murgatroyd said Shai’s bike was stolen, and she suspected it might have to do with a homeless woman they helped out the day before who was digging through their trash. She said she gave the woman, who told them she was from Georgia and appeared to be in her 20s, all the food they could, as well as blankets.
“We went through our fridge,” Chmerkovskiy chimed in off camera.
Murgatroyd said she hoped the woman and her boyfriend didn’t come back and steal their eldest son’s bike.
“We did have our garage door open, not at night, but for her to see what was in there. Obviously we closed it at night, but, it’s really s–tty,” she said.
