Harrison Ford Moving to Princeton?

Insiders close to celebrity real estate maneuverings are claiming that Harrison Ford and wife Melissa Matheson have been shopping for new digs in New Jersey of all places. The word is that Harrison and Melissa want to have a home close to an elite private school where they plan to send their 14-year-old son Malcom and, eventually, their 11-year-old daughter, Georgia. The elite preparatory institution, the Lawrenceville School, is considered among the best in the country and boasts a growing list of successful graduates.

Ford's rep, however, has denied repeatedly that her client is searching for additional property to supplement an apartment on the Upper West Side and a ranch in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. It was only a few weeks ago that Ford, one of Jackson's most prestigious residents, used his chopper to lead a rescue mission that resulted in the safe recovery of a boy scout who had been separated from his troop for over 24 hours. The folks in Jackson Hole would certainly be sorry to see the family go.

It's probably true that institutions such as the Lawrenceville School simply are not available in Jackson Hole, but you would think that a New York City substitute could be found. But, coming on the heels of their recent reconciliation, Harrison and Melissa have probably adopted a renewed vigor in the nurturing of their family, and education is certainly paramount to that process.
