Heidi Montag is reportedly set to move in with a gal-pal while the two film a new reality TV show this summer.
According to Radaronline.com, the plastic surgery-obsessed blonde, who is apparently separating from husband Spencer Pratt, is planning on becoming an independent woman.
Montag wants to focus on her acting career, even bidding to star in the next Transformers movie.
She is now moving in with her friend Jennifer Bunney while the two film their upcoming show.
“Heidi and I are moving into a Malibu beach house this summer,” Bunney told the website.
“We’re really excited to do girly things and show people who we really are and that we’re really fun, sweet and loyal girls.”
As for Spencer and Heidi’s relationship, Bunney revealed that the two were not legally separated.
“But, she is moving in with me. It’s just her being able to have some freedom from marriage and for us to work on our friendship and focus on things we want to focus on.”
Bunney, who is deciding whether to attend either medical or business school, also appeared on the hit MTV show The Hills. But she says she is looking forward to moving on. “I was portrayed in a really bad light when I was on the show and so was Heidi so we’ve bonded over that.
“I knew her before The Hills and our friendship is real and we’re so excited about what is next.”
Pratt is reportedly also likely to appear on the new show, sparking speculation that the Hollywood couple’s ‘break-up’ is merely a publicity stunt.
The currently untitled series is set to begin production in July and air in the US this autumn.
