Dakota and Elle Fanning Have Grown Apart? Older Sis Wants Out of the Hollywood Scene

Just because your sisters, doesn't mean you have to be close.

According to WebProNews, Dakota Fanning and her younger sister Elle Fanning have reportedly grown apart. The two are even living on opposite sides of the country. While her sister is working on major projects in Los Angeles, Dakota has decided to make New York her permanent home.

Dakota, 19, is reportedly sick of the Hollywood scene and is "happier out of the spotlight." WebProNews reported that 15-year-old Elle loves being in the limelight.

"Elle is the more ambitious one. Dakota is the one who could quit acting to start a band at the drop of a hat," an unnamed source told the news website. "Dakota is completely unimpressed with the red carpet culture in Hollywood, while Elle totally worships it."

In 2012, the sisters signed up to be the faces of the J. Estina advertising campaign.

Radar Online reported that the celebrity siblings, who rarely make public appearances together, have grown apart and are trying to create "their own identities and goals."

"They have something of a peace treaty, in the sense that Elle gets L.A. to herself, while Dakota is much happier in New York," a source told Radar. "Dakota is living off of the fortune she made as a child actor, instead of chasing after every big job under the sun."

Elle is stepping out of her older sister's shadow and taking on more noticeable roles. Radar reports that the actress has four projects set to be released in 2014, including "Maleficent," starring Angelina Jolie.

"They became firm friends on the set of 'Maleficent', and Angie's decided to take Elle under her wing," a source told Star magazine.
