Ellen DeGeneres Finds Peace in the UK Countryside
Ellen DeGeneres recently confirmed that she and her wife, Portia de Rossi, quietly relocated to the UK in late 2024. Craving
a slower pace and more privacy, the couple settled in the scenic Cotswolds — a countryside region known for its peaceful charm and celebrity appeal.
After selling their California estate, Ellen and Portia embraced rural life. Their days now involve tending to chickens,
caring for their horses, and enjoying the beauty of nature. Ellen often shares glimpses of their simpler
lifestyle on social media, filled with humor, animals, and heartfelt reflections.
Speaking at an event in Cheltenham, Ellen praised the UK’s natural beauty, cleaner environment, and a sense
of kindness she finds refreshing. She hinted that the move was partly driven by growing social tension in
the U.S. and a desire for a more inclusive, peaceful setting.
The couple is even considering renewing their vows as they settle into this fresh chapter. For Ellen,
life now is less about fame and more about connection — to Portia, to the land, and to a more intentional way of living.
From red carpets to rolling hills, Ellen’s journey shows that sometimes peace begins with a big change — and a lot of chickens.
