Hugh Laurie's Brand New House is Robbed

We told you about Hugh Laurie's family finally moving to the United States after staying in England for the first four years of "House." Hugh just bought a $4 million mansion earlier this month and someone already broke into the house and robbed it.

Laurie had his laptop and some other personal things stolen. Everyone is okay - Hugh and wife Jo were sound asleep when the burglars broke in. It's believed that the same group of thieves broke into other stars' homes, like Faith Hill and Tim McGraw, and studio boss Sherry Lansing, all who live near Laurie.

Police said, "The raid on Hugh Laurie was very similar to ones we have been investigating in that area. It is lucky that he did not disturb the burglars or we could have been looking at something much more serious."

Thank God everyone is okay. Hopefully, those punks will be caught soon.

Hugh Laurie's Family Finally Moving to the States

"House, M.D." is due to start back with its fifth season this Tuesday evening (can't wait) and star Hugh Laurie still has a tough time believing the show is going to last. So much so that he's refused to uproot his family from England all this time, and it's been hell on him. It's a grueling 9-month shooting schedule, then back to England for the hiatus, then rinse and repeat. That's just not enough time for anyone. I can't imagine being apart from my family on that sort of schedule.

Laurie has been married to his wife Jo for 19 years and she finally convinced him to bring the whole family to Los Angeles. Granted, it probably took his brand-new $17 million 3-year contract to help convince him. The couple share three children: Charlie, 19, Bill, 17, and Rebecca, 14.

The Daily Mail says that Laurie had to film all summer long without his usual two-month break because of the writers strike earlier this year. Fox TV helped him out by hiring 3 full-time assistants to help him find a great home for the family. He found one recently, a 3,200 square foot mansion in Hollywood worth $3.5 million.

I'm glad to see his family coming to the States. Whatever Hugh needs, he should get because "House" freaking ROCKS. I've loved Hugh for years, ever since I lived in England for a few years. Hysterical guy and he's a great actor. Congrats, Hugh.
