Ellen DeGeneres Relocates to the UK Following Career Changes
Ellen DeGeneres, the former talk show host, has recently relocated from the United States to the United Kingdom, as reported by various media outlets. The relocation comes after the sale of her Montecito home in August, which Fox News Digital confirmed through the realtor, Riskin Partners.
DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, have been spotted enjoying their new surroundings in the Cotswolds. During a recent visit to The Farmer's Dog, a pub owned by British TV presenter Jeremy Clarkson, the couple were seen enjoying a live performance by musician Natalie Imbruglia. The outing was attended by several celebrities, including Lisa Hogan and James Blunt, as well as the Irish band The Corrs, who performed at the venue.
Reports from People magazine have confirmed that DeGeneres and de Rossi purchased a new home in rural England after house hunting in October. «Ellen was in England house hunting in the beginning of October,» an insider revealed. «She ended up finding a house that she loved and purchased it shortly after.»
This move follows DeGeneres’ recent controversies and her decision to step back from the public eye. Her talk show, «The Ellen Show,» faced allegations of a toxic workplace environment, which led to its cancellation after 19 seasons. The final episode aired on May 26, 2022. In her new comedy special, «Four Your Approval,» DeGeneres addressed her departure from television, humorously stating, «I got kicked out of show business.»
DeGeneres has also been active in discussing political matters, having expressed support for Taylor Swift‘s endorsement of Vice President-elect J.D. Vance. This political engagement coincided with her decision to leave the U.S. following Donald Trump‘s presidential victory.
The internet reacted mixedly to DeGeneres’ relocation. Some users appreciated the move, with comments like «Thank you» and «Great news,» while others expressed a desire to join her abroad.
Despite the controversies in her career, DeGeneres appears to be embracing her new lifestyle in England, focusing on personal interests such as gardening and animal care, according to The Wrap. These activities are part of her post-show business life, which she candidly discusses in her recent public appearances.
