Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin just bought a new home. The Oscar winning actress and her rocker husband are set to move into a $10.45 million mansion in Los Angeles.

US Weekly reports that Paltrow and Martin have been splitting time between New York City and England but will now be moving out to the west coast. The $10.45 million home is in the Mandeville Canyon neighborhood and features 8,000-square-feet home, 6 bedrooms, a huge gourmet kitchen, and horse stables in the backyard.

The Spanish-Colonial/Mid-Century modern home, which was designed by Windsor Smith, sits on a sprawling estate that is lined with “venerable oaks and shady sycamores.”

Yahoo reports that the “House of Windsor” was featured in Veranda Magazine and was originally listed at $11.96 million. Although the home was designed by Smith, several other architects designed individual rooms. Candace Barnes, Peter Dunham and Kathryn Ireland all designed at least one room in the house.

Paltrow and Martin have been married since December 2003. They have two children together. Daughter Apple, 8, and son Moses, 6.

Update: I'll Have Another pulled from Belmont Stakes

"I'll Have Another" drew the No. 11 post for Saturday's Belmont Stakes, where he'll attempt to become the first Triple Crown winner in 34 years.

Even if you are not a horse racing fan, you’ll want to be in front of a television on Saturday evening. You may see history in the making: A horse may win the Triple Crown.

A horse earns the Triple Crown by winning the three most important races of the year: the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness and the Belmont Stakes.

A horse named I’ll Have Another has already won the first two big races of 2012. The 3-year-old colt (that means the horse is a boy) surprised a field of better-known contenders at the Derby and then came from behind to catch another favorite, Bodemeister, at the finish in a heart-pounding Preakness last month.

I’ll Have Another is a terrific story. He was not expected to be a great horse, but he gets better with every race. That’s a good lesson for kids and their coaches. Sometimes athletes (and racehorses) develop at different paces. It’s not always easy to pick out the best ones at an early age.

The horse’s jockey, Mario Gutierrez, is a surprise, too. He was an unknown rider who bounced around smaller tracks in Canada before he hopped aboard I’ll Have Another. Gutierrez has ridden his horse like a master in both big races.

So it would be great if I’ll Have Another wins Saturday. But it will be tough. The Belmont Stakes is the longest race in the Triple Crown — 1 1 / 2 miles. Seven horses in the past 15 years have won the Kentucky Derby and Preakness only to lose their chance for the Triple Crown in the Belmont Stakes.
