Ellen DeGeneres has confirmed that her move to the UK with wife Portia de Rossi was influenced by Donald Trump's potential re-election. They purchased a home in the Cotswolds and initially intended it as a part-time residence. On the day before the 2024 election, they decided to stay in the UK after receiving distressing messages from friends about the election results. DeGeneres praised the UK for its cleanliness and the treatment of animals, expressing her love for their new home. She also reflected on her long-lasting marriage to de Rossi, which began in 2008.
We got here the day before the election and woke up to lots of texts from our friends with crying emojis, and I was like, 'He got in'. And we're like, 'We're staying here'.
It's clean. Everything here is just better - the way animals are treated, people are polite. I just love it here.
