In a spectacular twist, comedian Ellen DeGeneres (67) is giving her fans on Instagram a fresh new look. Known for her signature blonde locks, the former talk show host is ditching the platinum locks for a brunette version, living it up in her new rural life in England.
Grinning from ear to ear, Ellen can be seen tearing through a vast field on a yellow lawnmower in a video posted on her social media. The weekend video shows her adapting to her new home alongside her wife, Portia de Rossi (52).
The video begins with "How it started" text, followed by Ellen confidently maneuvering the mower. However, things don't end so smoothly, as the machine lurches on a steep hill, leaving Ellen stranded. DeGeneres humorously commented, "Portia thought it would be funny to film my first time on a lawnmower. She was right,"
Country Life Adjustments
This isn't the first peek into the couple's life in the UK. Back in April, Ellen shared a picture with her 136 million followers, standing behind Portia amidst a beautiful landscape and a stunning double rainbow after a rain shower. "3 things that make me happy: My wife, a rainbow, and my wife taking a photo of a rainbow," she captioned the image.
The couple's new abode in rural England proved to be a good change after their previous home in the Cotswolds faced severe flooding shortly after moving in[2]. They uprooted and moved to a new estate near Oxfordshire.
A New Era for Ellen
After facing a significant setback in 2020 concerning allegations of a toxic work environment, the host's talk show, "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," came to an end in 2022[3]. In an interview with the "Hollywood Reporter," the host reflected on this period stating, "I have to trust that everything that happened during this time, which was very, very difficult, happened for a reason. I think I've learned a lot, and there were some things that came up that shocked and surprised me. It opened my eyes, but I just have to trust that it had to happen this way."
Back in the Game
Eager to regain the spotlight, DeGeneres made a return to the entertainment industry in 2024 with a Netflix special titled "Ellen DeGeneres: For Your Approval." The project, although not universally appreciated, marked her comeback to the scene after a rocky patch[4].
In March, Ellen took an intriguing step and put her Montecito estate up for sale for $4.995 million[5]. The house with two bedrooms and two bathrooms sold for $5.2 million less than two weeks later. In January, Ellen and Portia also put another Montecito estate up for sale for $29.9 million.
