Tyler Perry announces move to Puerto Rico and fewer projects

In an interview on the show "Today with Jenna & Sheinelle," Tyler Perry confirmed that he will move to Puerto Rico early next year and intends to significantly reduce his workload. The revelation came alongside the release of his new Netflix film, generating massive interest in online searches.

Reasons for the move to Puerto Rico

Perry explained that the decision is tied to getting older and a desire to spend more time with his 11-year-old son, Aman. He stated that the move will allow him to "slow down a bit" and enjoy life outside the intense Hollywood routine.

Fewer projects and personal focus

During the same interview, the filmmaker said he will "pull back" on many of his professional commitments. His intention, according to him, is to slow down without completely abandoning the industry. Perry also commented that despite the decrease in activities, he is not abandoning his future projects.

Stance on marriage

Alongside the relocation, Perry reiterated that he has no intention of getting married. He justified the choice by saying that, for him, the risk of divorce outweighs the benefits of marriage, and he prefers to remain single.

Impact on business and properties

Perry continues to fully own his catalog of films, series, and plays, as well as Tyler Perry Studios, a 330-acre complex in Atlanta. This full ownership structure ensures that his assets remain concentrated and less susceptible to division in the event of marriage.

Recent release context

The news was shared just days after the release of "Why Did I Get Married Again?" on Netflix, the third installment of the franchise that began in 2007. The film arrived on the streaming service on September 9, reinforcing Perry's presence on digital platforms even as he announces his lifestyle change.
