Dakota, 28, bought a five-bedroom, six-bathroom home for $2.95million in nearby Toluca Lake shortly before the pair sold their shared home, but Elle has not revealed where she is living.

However, the actress gave fans a rare peek inside her home on social media in August 2021, featuring a relatable glimpse at washing drying in the background. Sharing a selfie in what appeared to be an apartment, Elle wrote: "Feel like @katebosworth in Blue Crush! (don't mind towels drying in bg or do)."
