The 66-year-old talk show host, comedian and actress has moved to rural England, according to a new report in The Wrap.

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.
DailyMail.com reached out to a former representative for DeGeneres for comment, but she no longer represents the comedian after the conclusion of her latest stand-up tour.
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.

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.
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.
Last week, DeGeneres and de Rossi were spotted visiting Clarkson’s pub 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.
