An entertainment source told PEOPLE in March, “Ant is very happy with Renée. He really loves her.” The insider added that Anstead could be leaning towards proposing soon, but “Ant doesn’t want to rush things.”

Despite maintaining busy schedules, both Anstead and Zellweger “very much prioritize Hudson,” the source told PEOPLE. “They want him to be happy and comfortable.”

A month later, a separate source revealed to PEOPLE that the couple “found a house that they both love and are moving in together.” While Anstead didn’t disclose the location of the property, he previously told PEOPLE, “I’m going to absolutely keep a base in and around Laguna.”

The insider added of the couple, “They are very happy and in love. They have tried to keep their relationship private and low-key because of Hudson.”
