Gabriel Macht Opens Up About Moving Abroad with His Family
Suits star Gabriel Macht has shared some big news about his life off-screen.
The actor, who is best known for playing Harvey Specter on the hit legal drama, revealed that he and his family have relocated from the United States.
However, he’s keeping the details of their new home under wraps, saying that he prefers to keep it private.
In a recent interview with People, the 53-year-old actor said, “I am based somewhere in Europe, but I don’t tell anybody where I live because I like to keep that under wraps.
” He added, “I go out of town and we’re exploring the world.
” It’s clear that the Macht family is enjoying a new chapter in a new location, though the exact whereabouts remain a mystery.
Family Life and the Decision to Move
Macht’s move comes with his wife, Australian actress Jacinda Barrett, and their two children—Satine, 17, and Luca, 10.
After the conclusion of Suits in 2019, Macht took some time off from acting to focus on his family.
He explained that he wanted to dedicate more time to raising his kids after the show wrapped up.
He also shared that the decision to move abroad was partly influenced by the pandemic.
The family was living in New York when the lockdowns hit, and he admitted that they found themselves feeling “stuck” in Manhattan.
As a result, they decided it was time for a fresh start, and a move to Europe seemed like the perfect opportunity.
Gabriel Macht’s Return to the Stage
Although he’s taken a step back from acting in TV shows and films, Gabriel Macht is still involved in creative projects.
In March 2024, he announced he would be participating in a unique production of Whodunnit [Unrehearsed] at London’s Park Theatre.
He excitedly shared the news on Instagram, saying he would join a list of guest inspectors to solve the mystery live on stage—without any rehearsals!
Macht also supported the theatre in December 2024 by taking part in a fundraiser for its Big Give Campaign.
He’s clearly committed to helping out causes that matter to him, even as he continues to explore new places and experiences with his family.
Celebrity Exodus and International Moves
Gabriel Macht isn’t the only celebrity to consider leaving the United States.
After Donald Trump’s presidential win, many American stars hinted they might move abroad, with some even following through.
For instance, comedian Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia De Rossi, made the move to rural England.
Similarly, Ugly Betty star America Ferrera and her family announced plans to relocate to the UK.
While Macht’s move took place before Trump’s re-election, it seems his shift to Europe is part of a broader trend among some American celebrities opting for a change of scenery.
Suits Cast and Meghan Markle’s Absence
Fans of Suits will know that Gabriel Macht’s character, Harvey Specter, had a dynamic relationship with Meghan Markle’s Rachel Zane on the show.
However, Macht and his co-star Patrick J. Adams, who played Mike Ross, revealed last year that they had not been in touch with Meghan since the show ended.
In fact, at the Golden Globe Awards in January 2024, Adams and Macht were asked about Meghan’s whereabouts, to which Adams replied that they simply “don’t have her number.”
Though Meghan was invited to the ceremony, an insider shared that she couldn’t attend due to a “previous commitment.
” Despite the distance, Macht and his wife were among the guests at Meghan and Prince Harry’s royal wedding in 2018.
It’s clear that Gabriel Macht is enjoying this new phase of life, balancing family, career, and a fresh international adventure.
