Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi: A Blissful Parisian Day After 17 Years of Marriage
ELLEN DEGENERES AND PORTIA DE ROSSI: THE QUEEN OF COMEDY AND HER BEAUTIFUL BRITISH BUBBLE
In a world where celebrity news is always buzzing, two power couples have captured our attention: Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi. The beloved comedian and her gorgeous actress wife are living their best lives in the picturesque Cotswolds, England.
At the unveiling of RH Paris on Thursday, Ellen, 67, and Portia, 52, were beaming with joy as they stepped out in stylish black knitwear. The coordinated outfits made them look like a million bucks – or rather, a $22.5 million farmhouse in the Cotswolds!
Ellen paired her chic knitted jumper with white slim fit trousers and lace-up trainers that screamed "I'm a free spirit!" Meanwhile, Portia opted for a black sheer woolen top tucked into a matching midi skirt and sleek leather boots. The result? A stunning duo that turned heads on the streets of Paris.
As they made their way through the French capital, Ellen and Portia were seen holding hands – a sweet gesture that left fans gushing over social media. They even stopped to sign autographs for adoring fans, proving that these two are still as lovely as ever.
But what's behind their decision to leave the States and settle in the UK? According to sources close to the couple, it all began when they celebrated their 17th wedding anniversary last month. Ellen marked the occasion with a heartwarming video on Instagram, sharing sweet memories from their special day.
In the caption, she gushed: "Happy 17th anniversary of the best day of my life. Portia, I love you more every day." The post was met with millions of likes and comments from fans worldwide, who couldn't get enough of the devoted couple's love story.
So, what prompted Ellen and Portia to leave their beloved California homes behind? It all started when they decided to move to Britain in 2024. They snapped up a stunning 43-acre estate in the Cotswolds for $20 million – only to list it on the market for a cool $22.5 million!
But why did they choose to relocate to England? In an exclusive interview with TheScholarlyNote.com, Ellen revealed that she and Portia were "hopeful" for Kamala Harris's presidential bid when they made the decision. However, when Trump won the election, they decided to stay put in the UK.
"We thought we'd be here for three or four months a year," Ellen explained, "but always when we came here, we loved it and thought it was beautiful." And so, they bought a farmhouse that would become their part-time home. But soon, they realized they needed something bigger – and thus began their search for the perfect Cotswolds retreat.
Fast-forward to today, and Ellen and Portia are still navigating their new life in England. In an interview with TheScholarlyNote.com earlier this year, Ellen gushed about her love for Britain: "I really like the people. Fish and chips are delicious too." She continued: "The UK is beautiful. It's absolutely beautiful."
When asked what she loves most about life in the UK, Ellen beamed with excitement: "Even in the villages and towns, I love the architecture and houses. Everything you see here is charming. It's a simpler way of life... It's clean. Everything here is just better." We couldn't agree more, Ellen!
As for their impressive real estate portfolio, sources close to the couple have revealed that they've bought and sold over 50 homes worldwide – including a stunning $24 million property in Montecito where the Duke and Duchess of Sussex reside.
But what's next for Ellen and Portia? Will they continue to expand their British bubble or find themselves drawn back to the States? One thing is certain: these two are still living their best lives, and we can't get enough of their love story. Stay tuned for more updates on this fabulous power couple!
