Despite being adamant about their new lives in the UK during US President Donald Trump’s second term, Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi may be headed back to the US after all. After weeks of speculation, new records show they may already be in the process of returning to the US after secretly buying a new mansion!

It was reported that the pair bought producer Brian Grazer’s Montecito mansion for $27.4 million in an off-market deal at the end of November, which was later confirmed by Realtor when they found property records that showed their longtime business manager, Harley J. Neuman, orchestrated the deal!
It’s unclear if they’ll be returning full-time, part-time, or continuing their lucrative side hustle of buying and flipping homes for profit. Either way, it seems they’re not letting go of the US just yet!

For those who don’t know, DeGeneres and Rossi met back in 2001 at a Rock the Vote concert. However, they didn’t get together until 2004 after breaking up with their respective partners. When they reconnected in 2004, they split with their respective partners, and they started dating. The pair later got engaged, and married in Aug 2008.
As we said before, after Trump’s victory in the 2024 U.S. presidential election, DeGeneres and Rossi left all their California properties behind to move to the UK, later confirming the election was the reason.
