While the incoming Republican administration was mentioned as a catalyst, a fresh start might be beneficial. Ellen DeGeneres has acknowledged being "kicked out of show business" following reports of toxic workplace behavior on the syndicated 'Ellen' show in 2022.

DeGeneres has relocated to the Cotswolds, a pastoral region in south-central England, according to a source close the former television host. Additionally, her Montecito estate, located approximately 90 minutes north of Los Angeles, is expected to be listed for sale shortly.

DeGeneres is said to have purchased the expansive Montecito estate in 2019, making it the primary home for her and de Rossi as the fate of her other Southern California properties remains unclear.

Ellen DeGeneres reflects on post- 'Ellen' life in new stand-up special

A previous representative for Ellen DeGeneres said that she no longer works with the comedian following the completion of her comedy special and tour. DeGeneres has recently launched 'Four Your Approval', a stand-up program she created with Netflix.

The show details her activities after the 'Ellen' show, revealing that, apart from the comedy special, none of her pursuits have been connected to the entertainment industry.

“I decided to take up gardening,” DeGeneres remarked, adding “I got chickens. Let me see what else I can tell you about what’s been going on … Oh yeah, I got kicked out of show business … Yeah, the ‘be kind’ girl wasn’t kind. That was the headline.”

She then voiced her wonder about whether she should have established different expectations.

“Had I ended my show by saying, ‘Go f–k yourselves,’ people would have been pleasantly surprised to find out I’m kind,” the comedian delivered a joke.

Internet speculates Portia de Rossi and Ellen DeGeneres' hidden motive to leave US

As soon as the news about Ellen DeGeneres and her wife's departure from the country went viral on social media, users began reacting to it.

A user said, "She has skeletons in her closet. That’s the only reason she would be so afraid."

Another demanded, "Good riddance and never come back…Surrender your US citizenship, pay exit taxes and encourage fellow liberals to do the same…"

A third commentator claimed, "We will not miss them"

"No one just leaves like that. How does this not raise suspicion. Hollywood needs to be investigated and prosecuted if deemed necessary," a critic wrote.

A person said, "She can blame it on Trump all she wants but we know it’s because of the diddy tapes."

Another chimed in, "I’m sure it has nothing to do with Trump winning the election. It’s the crew he brought with him that will start exposing all the evil parading in front of us day after day. What is she trying to move away from I wonder."
