Jenny McCarthy Confirms She and Donnie Wahlberg Are Headed to Las Vegas

After fueling speculation of a possible move to California, Jenny McCarthy is setting the record straight: she and Donnie Wahlberg are Las Vegas bound.

Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg are changing addresses. After listing their longtime Illinois home earlier this week, McCarthy confirmed they’re relocating to Las Vegas.

McCarthy shared the update in an Instagram post shared by People Home, which mentioned the couple was considering moving to California, a possibility Wahlberg had previously mentioned, to be closer to his sons.

Reacting to the post, McCarthy wrote in the comments section, “Going to Vegas. Not Cali.”

The couple’s St. Charles, Illinois home, which they’ve owned since 2015, is currently listed under Cory Jones of eXp Realty. The Tudor-style mansion sits on nearly 1.3 acres and includes four bedrooms, six bathrooms, a home theater, gym, sauna, cold plunge, putting green, and a pool complete with a waterslide and hot tub.

Speaking to People in 2019, Wahlberg described the home as a symbol of their love. "This isn't an extravagant home, but there's no greater symbol of our love for each other than this house and how much love has gone into it," he said, adding that the pair had once talked about wanting a "small town life" together. "We made it a goal for ourselves and said it out loud because we wanted to make it happen. And here we are, together with our kids, and we're grateful for every bit of it."

The couple’s move aligns with Wahlberg’s ongoing Las Vegas residency with New Kids on the Block. The residency, titled “The Right Stuff,” began in June 2025 and has been extended to October 2026 at Dolby Live at Park MGM.

Wahlberg has opened up about being grateful for the opportunity to return to the stage with the band, which started back in the early 80s. "We're very fortunate to still be here," he said.

He also doesn’t take the show lightly, recognizing the effort fans make to watch. “Our fans, they travel for us," he said. "It's a big deal, and we want them to feel like they're getting the full New Kids experience. And I think they did, but I think we have more to offer and we're going to pull out some old tricks."

He also spoke fondly of what makes the Vegas shows special, including surprise appearances from members of New Edition and the Backstreet Boys. "It's a magical experience, and you would think it could get redundant, but it really doesn't," he said. "It's different each night and fun each night, and hopefully we'll make some more incredible memories coming up."

New Kids On The Block originally included Wahlberg’s brother, Mark Wahlberg, and their friends Jordan Knight, Danny Wood, and Jamie Kelly, who left the band early on, to be replaced by Knight’s brother, Jonathan Knight. When Mark left the group in 1984, Joey McIntyre filled his spot.

The band split in 1994, only to reunite in 2008. They released their eighth studio album in March 2024, their first full release in 11 years.
