Ellen DeGeneres’s UK mansion ‘floods’ just weeks after she fled the US ‘due to Donald Trump’s presidential win’



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, the Daily Mail reports.

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.
