Ellen DeGeneres Sells Final US Home for $5.2M After UK Move

Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, have officially severed ties with the U.S. by selling their two-bedroom, two-bathroom Montecito home for $5.2 million, just ten days after listing it for $4.995 million. The property, which spans 1,691 square feet and features a spa-like bathroom and private courtyard, was purchased by the couple in 2020 for $2.9 million. This sale comes four months after the couple moved to the English countryside, purchasing an $18 million farmhouse in the Cotswolds. Reports suggest that DeGeneres's decision to relocate was influenced by her tarnished reputation following a scandal related to her former talk show. Despite their move, the couple has faced challenges, including disputes with neighbors in their new upscale community. DeGeneres expressed excitement about their new life and future adventures together in England.
