Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi flee the US and move to England following Donald Trump’s presidential victory
American Talk show host and comedian, Ellen DeGeneres has reportedly left the United States and moved to England with her actor-wife Portia de Rossi after Donald Trump’s second presidential win.
TMZ reported that the celeb couple was disillusioned with Donald Trump’s victory in the US election and wanted to leave the country.
TMZ cited sources with ‘direct knowledge’ of Ellen and Portia’s move and said that the couple has now settled in a new home in the Cotswolds — a region in South West England, about 2 hours from London.
The report states that while Ellen and Portia had bought the place before the US elections, they decided to move after Trump’s win earlier this month.
The source said they were “very disillusioned” with Trump’s victory and immediately decided “to get the hell out.”
The move may be permanent for the celeb couple, as the TMZ report also claims that they are now listing their house in Montecito, California. They had previously sold their other mansion in the US for $96 million.
The 66-year-old will join celebrities like David and Victoria Beckham, Elizabeth Hurley and Kate Moss in the countryside as she leaves her home country in the aftermath of the election.
Ellen and Portia were among the most vocal supporters of Donald Trump’s key rival in the 2024 US presidential election, Vice President Kamala Harris.
“There’s nothing more powerful than a woman whose time has come!! I can’t wait for @KamalaHarris to be our next president,” Ellen wrote on Instagram in September. She also donated $3,300 to Harris’ campaign.
