Kelis lives on a farm in Quindio, Colombia with her children.

If you head to Kelis's Instagram account, you'll notice she has the hashtag #farmlife written in her bio. That's not just for show. In 2019, she and Mike parted ways with their sprawling L.A. mansion and bought Bounty Farms in Quindio, Colombia, according to Black Doctor. Kelis's love for cooking, eating healthy, and a simpler lifestyle inspired the move.

While appearing on Essence's Yes, Girl! podcast in May 2020, Kelis gave fans a peek into her family life on the farm. She explained that her kids had to do chores on the farm and that she's "not the mom that's cleaning their room for them." As she said, it's their responsibility to keep things tidy. Furthermore, the star added: "They're not on iPhones or iPads. I try to keep them as grounded as possible."

It looks like Kelis and her three kids live a sweet and quiet life on their farm in Colombia.
