They lived in Midland years ago, and moved to the Bay Area of California to be closer to family.

His reply went something like this: <i>She&#8217;s a nanny, and works for a family that&#8217;s pretty well off. Johnny Ive and his wife have twins and&#8230;<br \/><\/i><br \/>I interrupted him, making a huge leap of logic: <i>Johnny Ive&#8230;as in Jonathan Ive?
