Just about every aspect of Giuliana Rancic's life seems to be in a serious state of upheaval. She has taken her public lumps after insulting Zendaya Coleman on Oscar night, her working relationship with E! was said to be strained when she played a huge role in Fashion Police being put on hiatus and then there is her weight. She has gotten so much negative press about how thin she is that Rancic actually addressed the eating disorder rumors and blames her ultra-thiness on her cancer medication. Now the host is confirming that she will soon be moving to Chicago to be with her husband Bill Rancic full-time. Up until now, the couple has shared parenting duties between Los Angeles and Chicago, which is certainly not the best thing for a young family. But does this mean E! is phasing her out?

According to an exclusive interview with People, Rancic claims to be excited about the move.

"Up until now, Duke's been on our schedule. But he starts school at the end of summer and we want him to have a connection with schoolmates and not be going from city to city," she says.

And a bonus: The Rancics, who have lived part-time in Chicago, Bill's hometown, and commuted back and forth for work and their E! reality show Giuliana and Bill, just finished construction on their dream home.

"Bill and I both grew up in the suburbs," Rancic says. "We love that sense of community. And I have loved Chicago ever since we started dating nine years ago."

And thankfully for Rancic, her job in front of the camera will not be affected.

"I won't be in L.A. on set as much," she explains. "But there's a lot of work in New York and Chicago, too. I don't have to pick one or the other."

What is interesting is that in the past Rancic refused to live full-time in Chicago because she could not really work from there. Part-time pit stops there was about all she wanted to entertain. It also sounds like she is stepping away from E! because it primarily films in L.A., not New York or Chicago.

Do you think Rancic has willingly decide to change her lifestyle and move away from work, or do you think E! might actually be in the process of phasing her out after all the negative press she has brought to the network? Tell us your thoughts in the comments section below.
