Donald Trump's US presidential victory over Kamala Harris has reportedly prompted Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi to make a big decision. The couple is ready to say their final goodbyes to the United States and move out of the country permanently. Instead, they are planning to settle in Cotswolds, South West England. The place is two hours from London. As per reports, Ellen and Portia had already purchased their new home before the election. “Very disillusioned” with Donald Trump's win, Ellen and her wife took the quick decision “to get the hell out” of the USA. The pair are even thinking of listing their home in Montecito, California. Previously, they sold another mansion in the US for $96 million.
A few days ago, Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi were seen having a good time at British host Jeremy Clarkson's pub The Farmer's Dog in Burford, England. In a video posted by Jeremy's girlfriend Lisa Hogan, Ellen and Portia appeared to be enjoying an acoustic performance of The Corrs. Accompanying the group was singer Natalie Imbruglia, best known for the 1997 song Torn. Take a look:
Ellen DeGeneres emerged as one of the top supporters of Kamala Harris. She even donated $3,300 to Kamala Harris' election campaigns, reported TMZ. Ellen, the former talk show host of the popular The Ellen DeGeneres Show, even endorsed Kamala on social media after the Vice President was tapped to replace President Joe Biden in July.
Back in August, Ellen DeGeneres showed her support for Kamala Harris by dropping a post on Instagram. She wrote, “There is nothing more powerful than a woman whose time has come!! I can't wait for Kamala Harris to be our next president.”
Workwise, Ellen DeGeneres exited The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2022 both as a host and an executive producer following complaints of a “toxic work environment.” The television programme ran successfully for 19 seasons. It earned 64 Daytime Emmy Awards. Ellen was last seen in the stand-up comedy special For Your Approval on Netflix which was released on September 24.
