Remember when Ellen DeGeneres made a big show of fleeing the United States because she just couldn’t handle President Trump’s massive victory?
Well, that didn’t last long.
The disgraced talk show host has reportedly come crawling back to the very country she claimed she couldn’t live in, dropping a cool $27 million on a massive mansion in Montecito, California, according to Fox News.
Apparently, the “unbearable” weight of a Trump presidency wasn’t enough to keep her away from the luxury of the Golden State, even as it crumbles under the failed policies of the radical left.
Just over a year ago, Ellen and her wife Portia de Rossi packed their bags and moved to the Cotswolds in England. They claimed they were “never coming back.”
She cited the “political climate” and Trump’s landslide win as the reason she had to escape America. She even whined about receiving “texts with crying emojis” from her liberal friends when the results came in.
She had nothing but compliments for the UK when she first went there.
“It’s absolutely beautiful,” she said. “We’re just not used to seeing this kind of beauty. The villages and the towns and the architecture — everything you see is charming, and it’s just a simpler way of life.”
“It’s clean. Everything here is just better — the way animals are treated, people are polite. I just love it here.”
However, just weeks after the former talk show host announced she left the United States following President Trump’s election victory, her mansion in the United Kingdom was flooded.
According to new reports, Ellen has just closed on a sprawling estate in Montecito, right back in the heart of the celebrity bubble.
