Tot mom Casey Anthony has moved to another start to be closer to a man she’s currently dating.
According to the New York Post, Casey Anthony has been in a relationship with Tyson Ray Rhodes, 48, since January, which ended his 20-year marriage. The two met at a gym in Florida, where they both worked out.
The pair reportedly communicated in a group text with other gym members, but soon began talking privately, sources said. She has since relocated from Florida to Tennessee to be with Rhodes, the Post reports.

For weeks in 2008, Anthony lied to police, claiming she left Caylee with a nanny who turned out to be fictional. It took Anthony 31 days to report Caylee missing, despite the insistence of her parents, who were close to the child. Anthony stalled her parents by claiming she was too busy at work, although her job also turned out to be fictional.
Local media picked up the story and soon after, national media caught on, creating one of the most high-profile searches of the decade, as volunteers from across the nation flocked to Florida to help find Caylee.
In December 2008, a local meter reader located the remains of a young child close to the Anthony family’s Orlando home. Officials later confirmed that the remains were of Caylee. Police arrested Anthony and charged her with murder.
On July 5, 2011, Anthony was acquitted of murder, aggravated child abuse, and aggravated manslaughter of a child. She was found guilty on four counts of providing false information to a law enforcement officer.
According to a 2011 Florida Department of Corrections statement, Anthony became “one of the most hated women in America.” The nickname came after the masses blamed Anthony for Caylee’s death, despite the verdict.
Meanwhile, a friend of Anthony’s told the Post that Anthony couldn’t care less about her new boyfriend being married.
“She doesn’t care if he’s married or not,” the friend said.
“That’s his business. All she knows is that he makes her feel good, and she likes that. She was willing to follow him to Tennessee; she sees a future with him.”
“I asked her about it.. She sees potential in him. She wants to see where this goes,”
