Mark Wahlberg’s youngest daughter, Grace, has developed a passion for competitive horseback riding, which has made her parents, Mark and Rhea Durham, both proud and a bit anxious. Rhea frequently shares updates on Grace’s equestrian journey on social media, including recent photos from a showjumping competition where Grace showcased her skills. Despite Rhea’s nervousness while watching Grace compete, she expressed relief that everything went well.
Grace, 15, has been riding competitively for several years, and her father humorously noted on “The Tonight Show” that she chose “the most expensive sport possible.” He highlighted her dedication, mentioning that she spends significant time at the barn, even taking on chores like mucking stalls. The Wahlberg family, which also includes Grace’s siblings, has been living in Las Vegas since 2022, where they feel the kids are thriving in a supportive community.
Mark has shared his mixed feelings about leaving California, noting that while he misses the weather, the family enjoys the faith-based community and good schools in Las Vegas. They have recently moved into a new home, with plans to build a family residence and a studio, reflecting their commitment to settling into their new environment.
