Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi’s Surprising Move to England Over Australia
Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, recently made a surprising decision to relocate from California to the serene English countryside, snubbing Australia—the country that Ellen has long called home. Their move comes just weeks after they settled into their stunning Cotswolds mansion, which, although luxurious, faced unexpected challenges almost immediately, as severe flooding impacted the area.
The couple’s choice of England over Australia, despite Ellen's Australian roots, raises eyebrows. According to reports, the 66-year-old comedian decided to move to the UK primarily to focus on her comedy career. Sources close to Ellen revealed that while Australia’s relaxed beach lifestyle might be appealing for retirement, Ellen is still deeply committed to her professional pursuits, and the UK offers a vibrant comedy scene she’s eager to tap into. After the end of her long-running daytime talk show, which had been clouded by accusations of fostering a toxic work environment, Ellen is looking for fresh beginnings and opportunities to re-enter the comedy spotlight.

In addition to the career opportunities, the couple’s new home, worth millions, has quickly become their sanctuary. The property, a former farmhouse transformed into a luxurious six-bedroom home with all the modern amenities, sits on a sprawling 43-acre estate. Ellen and Portia’s new Cotswolds home boasts a gym, a games room, separate offices, and even a one-bedroom cottage. The couple, however, was not prepared for the weather chaos that came with their move. After days of relentless rain and winds reaching up to 80mph, the area surrounding their home was flooded in late November, causing significant disruption. Floodwaters inundated roads and trapped locals in their homes, including Ellen and Portia, though their property remained intact.
Despite the setback, Ellen and Portia seem to have found themselves in good company, as the Cotswolds is home to many other celebrities, including David and Victoria Beckham, Kate Moss, and Patrick Stewart. The area is known for its quiet charm, offering a peaceful escape from the hustle of city life, which is something Ellen seems to cherish.
While their move to the UK might seem like an unexpected choice, it highlights Ellen's desire for change and reinvention. With her talk show now behind her, Ellen is exploring new ways to re-engage with her comedy roots, finding inspiration in the unique atmosphere of the Cotswolds. It’s clear that Ellen and Portia are not just seeking a change of scenery but a fresh chapter in their lives and careers.
