The shockwaves from Donald Trump’s unexpected win in the 2024 U.S. Presidential elections are still being felt, even two weeks later. Hollywood, a strong supporter of democratic candidate Kamala Harris, is reeling from the results, and some outspoken celebs had promised to leave the country if Trump won. Talk show host Ellen DeGeneres is the first one to actually do that - the comedian and her wife, actress Portia de Rossi, have reportedly packed up and moved to England.

TMZ has reported that Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi were deeply disillusioned by Donald Trump’s victory in the 2024 U.S. presidential election, leading them to make the decision to leave the country.?

In TMZ's words, "they immediately decided to get the hell out."

According to sources close to the couple, Ellen and Portia had already purchased a property in the Cotswolds, a scenic area in southwest England, before the election but chose to move there after Trump's win.?

The couple has since settled into their new home, about two hours outside of London.

The couple's decision to relocate may be permanent, as they are now listing their California home in Montecito for sale.?

Previously, they sold another mansion in the U.S. for a reported $96 million.?

Ellen and Portia had been outspoken supporters of Kamala Harris throughout the election, with Ellen even taking to Instagram to express her excitement about Harris' potential presidency: "There's nothing more powerful than a woman whose time has come!! I can't wait for @KamalaHarris to be our next president."

She also made a financial contribution of $3,300 to Harris' campaign.
