Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia leaving the U.S. after the election results. They will sell their Montecito mansion

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi are reportedly making a significant life change by relocating to the United Kingdom. Married since 2008, the couple has listed their Montecito, California mansion for sale, signaling a fresh start abroad. Reports suggest their decision may be influenced by the recent political climate in the U.S., particularly Donald Trump’s election victory over Kamala Harris.

According to TMZ, the couple felt “deeply disillusioned” and left the country quickly following the election results. Ellen, a vocal supporter of Harris, had publicly endorsed her campaign and contributed financially, expressing hope for her presidency. Their move appears to reflect both personal disappointment and a desire to distance themselves from U.S. politics.

 

The couple has reportedly settled in the Cotswolds, a scenic area in South West England known for its celebrity residents, including David and Victoria Beckham and Kate Moss. Their new life in this exclusive region marks a notable shift from their previous California lifestyle.
