Ellen DeGeneres Returns to California After UK Move

Ellen DeGeneres has made a quick return to California just months after relocating to the Cotswolds in England with her wife, Portia de Rossi. Initially moving overseas following Donald Trump's election victory, DeGeneres was recently spotted in Montecito, California, visiting the luxury retirement community Casa Dorinda, possibly to see her wife's mother. The couple's U.K. farmhouse features lavish amenities, including 43 acres of land, but speculation has arisen regarding DeGeneres' brief return to the U.S. Despite their new life in the English countryside, it appears DeGeneres still maintains strong ties to her roots in California. This return follows a period of public scrutiny and allegations surrounding her former talk show, which ended in 2022. The future of their U.K. residence remains uncertain as DeGeneres navigates her personal and professional transitions.
