Ellen DeGeneres' Charming English Escape: Inside the Cotswolds Home with Sheep!

Ellen DeGeneres shared yet another brief look at her life in the English countryside after fleeing the U.S. with her wife Portia de Rossi.

Exclusive Scoop: Ellen DeGeneres' Sheep Sojourn in the Cotswolds!

The one and only Queen of Comedy, Ellen DeGeneres, has been keeping us all guessing with her latest escapades in the picturesque English countryside! Following her shocking exit from America alongside wife Portia de Rossi, we've been treated to a series of tantalizing glimpses into their new life abroad.

As you may recall, the power couple sold their Carpinteria, California estate for a staggering $96 million back in August 2024. Little did we know that just a few months later, they'd be fleeing the States and settling into their pre-purchased Cotswolds abode, courtesy of Portia's keen eye for real estate.

Over the last few months, she's been sharing videos and images of the new sheep the couple had acquired for their farm, and it seems they prefer the home to the land.

Fast-forward to April, when Ellen gave us our first peek at her new home through a stunning snap of Portia capturing a rainbow on camera. Since then, we've been treated to an onslaught of adorable sheep-centric updates from the farm – and let me tell you, these woolly friends are stealing the show!

In her latest Instagram video, Ellen gave us an intimate look at life in the Cotswolds, as four of her new sheep buddies took up residence inside their home! That's right; these furry friends have taken over not just the farm but also the DeGeneres' living room! As Portia can be heard exclaiming in the background, "They're inside?" Ellen calmly responds, "Yeah, they're inside." Meanwhile, a tiny pup is frantically scurrying away from the invasion.

But wait; it gets even better! In another recent video, we witnessed one of these curious creatures, Bernie, attempting to sneak into the chicken coop. Ellen can be seen trying to shoo her away, saying, "Um... oh no. Bernie, Bernie, you can't be in here... that's a good girl." Portia is heard moving in to guide Bernie back out, while Ellen tries to corral her flock of sheep.

She shared a new video on Instagram Monday that showed a few of the sheep milling about inside their home.

Now, we know what you're thinking: has the Queen of Comedy lost her marbles? But don't worry; it seems these sheep have become the new stars of the show! With over 54K likes on their latest video, it's clear that fans are loving this glimpse into their quirky country life.

Of course, not everyone is a fan – take Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane, for instance. At the annual Robin Hood charity gala in New York City, he took aim at Ellen during his stand-up routine: "She left right after the election, and now she's the nicest person in France." But don't worry; Ellen has addressed these claims before, saying, "I can be demanding and impatient and tough. I am a strong woman. I am many things, but I am not mean."

And there you have it – the latest updates from Ellen DeGeneres' English countryside escapades! Stay tuned for more sheep-tastic adventures from this lovable couple.

The second part of the video was filmed by Portia, who caught one of the sheep entering their home, seemingly named 'Bernie.'

'Um... oh no. Bernie, Bernie, you can't be in here... that's a good girl,' Portia said, moving closer to the sheep to usher it out of the home

'These... this is what's happening now,' Ellen began in the video, before turning the camera to show the sheep invading her chicken coop.
