Fans of Ellen DeGeneres knew that was leaving the spotlight. Once her final standup show, Ellen DeGeneres: For Your Approval, dropped on Netflix earlier this year, viewers assumed that Ellen reached her limit after several former the Ellen DeGeneres Show staff members accused the comedian of perpetuating a toxic work environment.
In For Your Approval, Ellen discussed what she had been up to since leaving The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2022.
“I decided to take up gardening. I got chickens,” she said, before joking, “Let me see, what else I can tell you about what’s been going on? Oh yeah, I got kicked out of show business.”
Ellen then quipped that her image as the “‘be kind’ girl wasn’t kind — that was the headline.”
“Had I ended my show by saying, ‘Go f**k yourselves,’ people would have been pleasantly surprised to find out I’m kind,” she jokingly added.
Now, however, a new report has surfaced claiming that Ellen and her wife, Portia de Rossi, have permanently left the United States after Donald Trump was re-elected in the 2024 election. So, is it true — did Ellen really leave the country? News47.us is breaking down the rumors, below.
On November 20, 2024, The Wrap reported that a source close to the Finding Dory star said that she and Portia “plan to never return to the United States” and even told their inner circle that the “election of Donald Trump was their primary motivation” to move.
