Former talk show host Ellen DeGeneres and partner Portia de Rossi have reportedly relocated to the Cotswolds in the United Kingdom. This move follows President-elect Donald J. Trump’s recent election victory over Kamala Harris. According to DeGeneres, the decision to leave the United States stems from dissatisfaction with the political climate—namely Trump’s re-election. The Cotswolds property purchase reportedly occurred before the election, though exact details remain unclear.
Largely driven out of Hollywood and show business following a string of allegations regarding her perpetuation of a toxic work environment, DeGeneres says she intends to sell her California residence in Montecito. Despite her reputation in the studio, DeGeneres has tried to integrate into the local Cotswolds social scene, where she has been spotted at various exclusive gatherings in the area.
One such event in November 2023 featured DeGeneres joining actor Idris Elba in a DJ booth at a North Oxfordshire stately home party. Recently, she was seen at Jeremy Clarkson’s Farmer’s Dog pub, accompanied by Rossi and singer James Blunt, as shown in a video shared by Lisa Hogan on Instagram.
DeGeneres had previously expressed strong support for Kamala Harris, urging women to vote in the election. Her criticism of Trump’s political views was well-documented, with remarks in 2017 stating that his policies contradicted her principles. She is not the only celebrity considering a move abroad due to political concerns. Actress Eva Longoria has also announced plans to leave the U.S., opting to split her time between Spain and Mexico, citing Trump’s return to the presidency as her reason.
