Ellen DeGeneres’s UK mansion ‘floods’ just weeks after she fled the US

Their dreams are drenched.

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi’s English farmhouse has flooded following torrential rain, a bombshell new report claims.

The couple recently purchased a multi-million pound property in the Cotswolds, about two hours outside of London, and are allegedly attempting to settle there permanently following Donald Trump’s election win.

But the 43-acre grounds are now underwater after the River Thames broke its banks in the wake of Storm Bert earlier this week, the Daily Mail reports.

Numerous roads in the Cotswolds have been left impassable after being saturated in five feet of water

Many locals are trapped in their homes, with one resident who lives near the couple telling the outlet: “The flood waters are rising by the hour. This is the worst I have seen it in years.”

The flooding comes after DeGeneres and de Rossi reportedly relocated to England in the wake of Trump’s presidential election victory over Vice President Kamala Harris.

Sources previously told the Wrap that DeGeneres and de Rossi packed up and moved to the UK and are gearing up to put their Montecito, Calif., mansion on the market to start afresh abroad.

The duo, who wed in 2008, will likely “never” return to the US on a permanent basis, one source claimed.

Separate insiders told TMZ that the duo decided to “get the hell out” of the country immediately following the president-elect’s victory, which left them feeling “very disillusioned.”

During election season, DeGeneres was vocal about her support for Harris, and reportedly donated $3,300 to her campaign.

DeGeneres and de Rossi had reportedly been settling into their new abode before the floods, recently pictured having a night out at a local pub in Burford, UK earlier this month.

In a video shared to The Farmer’s Dog’s Instagram page, a band plays as the camera pans to a table with the former talk show host rocking brunette hair while her wife sits beside her.

The Cotswolds is a picturesque and wealthy part of England, with many British celebs boasting country houses there.

Among DeGeneres and de Rossi’s new neighbors are David and Victoria Beckham, Kate Moss and Elizabeth Hurley.

Aww. At least she is principled. She actually did leave; I would too if I had the means to do so. Her cancellation baffles me. Was she really that bad. I mean I understand being a cunt, but was she more so than the your typical Hollywood social climber. It just sort of reeks of sexism. But it just shows you, it's never ok to treat underlings bad. Never. That shit will always come back to haunt you.

R1, Ellen is kind of sadistic. Her game show, I forget the name, revealed her true character. She was gleeful when contestants failed, practically orgasmed on camera.

Am I reading this right : she gave three thousand and change to Harris campaign — maybe I misread it - shouldn’t it have been three million please correct

R4 would it have mattered?

I'm late to the game and am belatedly viewing my way through "The Sopranos" and the more recent (circa 2020-) "Talking Sopranos" podcast hosted by Michael Imperioli and Steve Schirripa, who is great.

Schirripa pulls no punches and after a career as an actor and as a talent booker in Las Vegas before acting on the show he knows many well-known people. So far in the first season he has gone out of his way to call out two people he was learned were total assholes in real life- Robert DeNiro and Ellen DeGeneres!

But what does that have to do with her house being flooded?

She hasn't flooded my basement in years.

Are there any pics of this house? I need pics of exteriors and interiors - it's 2024. We should be allowed to open their medicine cabinets even.

Btw - she bought this house in October, before the election - so I doubt the election had anything to do with it.

And $3300 is the max federal campaign contribution allowed for an individual. She probably donated other money to the Dem party.

Unlike Musk, she played by the rules. Republicans haven't met a rule they don't want to break.

She was anticipating a Trump win, like many of us were.

DUH!

E: "Portia, Help!"

P: "I can only stick my finger in so many dykes!"

To be honest - they're known for doing major home renovations, so this probably worked out in her favor.

Hideous weather aside, she will find British planning restrictions unbearable and will not stay in England. I guarantee this 100%.

Does the flood prevent them from munching on their carpets?

Does Ellen really have terrible halitosis?

And I don't mean from eating poon.

In that case, R16 they can still go to Australia.

Ellen said on Facebook her house didn’t flood.

Tonight on BBC One: “These Mates of Mine” starring Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi. Ellen comes out as straight and has a lot of explaining to do to Portia.
