Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, have made a life-changing move to rural England, leaving their Montecito, California estate and the United States behind. According to a source close to the comedian, the election of Donald Trump played a significant role in their decision to relocate. DeGeneres’ sprawling Montecito property, purchased in 2019, has reportedly been pocket-listed for sale.
The former talk show host, who faced backlash in 2022 over allegations of a toxic work environment, described herself as “kicked out of show business.” In her Netflix special Four Your Approval, she humorously reflected on her departure from Hollywood, joking about the challenges of maintaining her “be kind” persona.
DeGeneres now resides in the Cotswolds, embracing a quieter life that includes gardening and raising chickens. Her shift away from the entertainment industry marks a new chapter, as she explores personal fulfillment outside the limelight.
