Ellen DeGeneres too Afraid of the US after Massive Red Wave, Exposed Disguise as a Brunette and Fled to the UK with Portia

Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi are getting to know their new stomping grounds after reportedly relocating from the U.S. to rural England.  

The couple have been spotted enjoying the tunes of The Corrs as they made a stop at The Farmer’s Dog, the new pub owned by British broadcaster Jeremy Clarkson, 64, that is located in the United Kingdom.

In video posted by the watering hole, Ellen, 66, and Portia, 51, were among those listening to the Irish band doing a relaxed, acoustic performance.

Singers James Blunt, 50, and Natalie Imbruglia, 49, were also present.

‘@natalie_imbruglia @thetallirish @jamesblunt what a great night in the pub with @thecorrsofficial ..the way a good pub night should be ..acoustic set, a few drinks, great friends @jeremyclarkson1 thanks for organising it!,’ the post was captioned.

It seems her new life abroad may have inspired Ellen to consider a new hairstyle – she ditched her familiar blonde for a head full of brunette tresses.

The video was shared last week, before The Wrap reported that the couple had moved to rural England.

DeGeneres is taking up roots in the UK with her wife, and they reportedly have no plans to return to the US.

To underscore the apparent permanence of the move, the couple plan to put their Montecito mansion on the market.

A person close to the former Ellen DeGeneres Show host claimed that she and de Rossi were primarily skipping town in response to the 2024 presidential election, which saw Donald Trump win a second non-consecutive term.

The couple are now reportedly living in the Cotswolds, a rural portion of Southwest England that is about 100 miles from London.

The area is popular with celebrities looking to avoid the hustle and bustle of London, which would make sense for DeGeneres and Rossi, as they had already tried to avoid Los Angeles by moving out to Santa Barbara County’s Montecito, about 75 miles from LA.

A source told People that Ellen went across the pond last month to check out new houses before finding her newest residence.

‘Ellen was in England house hunting in the beginning of October. She ended up finding a house that she loved and purchased it shortly after,’ the source said.

The insider noted of their latest outing at the pub: ‘They hung out with [Clarkson’s partner, actress] Lisa Hogan and James Blunt, and The Corrs performed at the pub.’

Ellen and Portia will have plenty of celebrity neighbors. Among the stars with properties in the Cotswolds are David and Victoria Beckham, Kate Moss, Patrick Stewart, Elizabeth Hurley, Jeremy Clarkson and Damien Hirst, among many others.

The area is even home to royalty, as King Charles owns Highgrove House in Gloucestershire.

Kate Winslet has also had a mansion in the area at one point, though it’s unclear if she still lives there, and Hugh Grant has been rumored for years to have a small hideaway in the Cotswolds.

In October, The Sun reported that the couple had bought a Cotswolds property, so their purchase predates the 2024 election.

However, after Trump’s win the married couple became ‘very disillusioned,’ and one source claimed the vowed to ‘to get the hell out’ of the US afterward, according to sources who spoke to TMZ.

Though many celebrities have threatened to leave the US in the face of a Trump win, most haven’t followed through.

Stars including Cher, Barbra Streisand, Sharon Stone and Sophie Turner have all said they were considering leaving the US if Trump won, though it’s not clear if any of them will actually do so.

Sources told TMZ that DeGeneres and de Rossi had already purchased the Cotswolds home before the 2024 election, but they decided to 'get the hell out' of the US afterward; seen together in 2022 in Inglewood, Calif.

America Ferrera is said to be considering a move to the UK, and Eva Longoria has spoken about relocating to Europe, though she clarified that, despite her disapproval of Trump, she had moved for international work.

The publication notes that DeGeneres was among Vice President Kamala Harris’ high-profile celebrity donors.

She donated $3,300 to the losing Democratic candidate, which is the maximum amount that can be donated directly to a candidate, though wealthy donors often get around the contribution limits by donating much more to political action committees and super PACs.

Harris was tapped to replace President Biden as the Democratic candidate in July of this year, and DeGeneres shared an endorsement for her on social media in August.

Despite reportedly leaving the US because of the election and Donald Trump’s looming second administration, DeGeneres had plenty of reasons for a new start away from home.

Her career was tarnished — likely permanently — by accusations that she fostered a toxic workplace on the set of her eponymous daytime talk show, which aired its last episode on May 26, 2022.

She delved into her persona non grata status on her stand-up special For Your Approval, which was released on Netflix in late September.

The comedian joked that she had been ‘kicked out of show business’ in the special, which featured material about how she has been spending her time since the end of her TV show.

According to The Wrap, DeGeneres and de Rossi have either pocket-listed their Bali-inspired Montecito mansion, or it will soon be listed.

According to TMZ, they are still mulling a potential asking price, but once they settle on one the property will go on the market.

DeGeneres and de Rossi purchased the massive home for an eye-popping $27 million in 2019.

The mansion features five bedrooms and 10 bathrooms over 8,188 square feet, and it includes exotic features like bamboo ceilings, flamed black limestone and gorgeous distressed oak floors.

The couple also sold their Carpinteria mansion for $96million in August.
