Amy posted a photo of the incredible pad on Instagram and directed fans to Modlin Group to have a look inside and also to the The Wall Street Journal who she spoke to about the real estate decision.

Amy didn't reveal where she's planning to move, but hinted at Brooklyn as they want to be closer to their son's school. 

"It's pretty obvious where we are going," she said. "If you leave this borough, what borough do people usually move to? It's not rocket science."
