Ellen DeGeneres and wife reportedly fled to UK following Trump victory

WASHINGTON (TNND) — Longtime television personality Ellen DeGeneres, 66, and her wife Portia de Rossi have fled the United States following President-elect Donald Trump’s victory in the presidential election, according to The Wrap.

The couple will soon list their home in Montecito, California, the publication wrote.

Trump’s return to the Oval Office was reportedly a major consideration behind this decision.

DeGeneres reportedly moved to Cotswold in south-central England. The city is located roughly two hours from London.

The TV star publicly endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential bid via Instagram in August.

“There’s nothing more powerful than a woman whose time has come!!” she wrote. “I can’t wait for @KamalaHarris to be our next president.”

She has also been a vocal critic of Trump, saying in 2017 she would not welcome him on her show.

“I’m not going to change his mind,” DeGeneres said of her reasoning for the decision. “He’s against everything that I stand for.

We need to look at someone else who looks different than us and believes in something that we don’t believe in and still accept them, still let them have their rights.”

Harris made an appearance on the show during her first presidential bid, during which she made a joke about sharing an elevator with Trump.

“If you had to be stuck on an elevator with either President Trump, Mike Pence or Jeff Sessions, who would it be?” DeGeneres asked.

“Does one of us have to come out alive?” Harris quipped before breaking out in laughter.

Video of that remark resurfaced this summer following the multiple assassination attempts against Trump, sparking outrage among conservatives.

A press email address for DeGeneres returned an undeliverable error when reached by The National News Desk Thursday.

Former Trump attorney Michael Cohen this month backtracked on his plans to flee the U.S. following the election.

Cohen told MSNBC in September he would be “out of here” if Trump won election, but later said he has no intention of abandoning the United States.

“I said I was leaving and then the following day—get that through your dumb heads—the following day I turned around and I say there’s no chance in the world I’m leaving my country, thank you very much,” Cohen said during a livestream.

“I’m not leaving anywhere, you leave,” Cohen added. “This is my country.”
