Victoria Beckham is set to move to Italy this summer.
The former Spice Girl - who is currently living in Los Angeles with her three sons while soccer star husband David plays for AC Milan - has decided she can no longer be apart from her spouse and wants them all to live under the same roof.
A source said: "Victoria loves America but all the flying back and forward is starting to take its toll, and being apart from David has been really hard for them both. She loves her friends and her life in Los Angeles, but it doesn't make up for the fact she is so far away from her husband.
At heart, she is a mum and a wife and she wants to do what is best for her family. "Victoria hated the idea of moving to Milan at first, but she's warmed to it. Plus, she doesn't want David to be on his own too long away from her and the kids."
David - who has been in Italy since January - is due to return to America next month to resume his contract with Los Angeles but it is thought AC Milan want to sign him on a permanent basis for next season, which starts in August.
Victoria is now searching for a family home and a school for their boys, Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, six, and four-year-old Cruz.
The source added to Britain's Star magazine: "Victoria has said the kids were hoping to stay in Los Angeles, where they have settled in, especially Brooklyn. But they are used to moving a lot now.
They're well-rounded kids, so Victoria isn't worried about them adjusting to a new home and a new school."
