Golden Globe Winner Robin Wright Leaves US for UK Amid Political Discontent

Actress Robin Wright, known for her roles in "Forrest Gump" and "House of Cards," has relocated to the United Kingdom, describing America as a "s---show" marked by rush, competition, and stress. She expressed relief at leaving behind the fast-paced lifestyle of Los Angeles, praising the kindness, tranquility, and slower pace of life she found in England, where she now lives with her boyfriend, architect Henry Smith. Wright's move aligns with a broader trend of American celebrities, including Ellen DeGeneres, Portia de Rossi, and Rosie O'Donnell, leaving the U.S. due to political and social frustrations following President Donald Trump's re-election. While Wright continues to work on projects in the U.S., such as the upcoming Prime Video series "The Girlfriend," she emphasizes her preference for a quieter life and personal fulfillment found abroad. She noted the liberating feeling of having found her partner and a sense of closure as she approaches 60. Wright's decision reflects a growing Hollywood exodus seeking peace and freedom from the pressures perceived in American society.
