Ellen DeGeneres has given fans a glimpse into her sprawling Cotswolds home after moving to England at the end of 2024.
When Donald Trump was set to be re-elected as US President at the end of 2024, many A-listers claimed they'd be moving out of the US.
Ellen and her wife, Portia de Rossi, made the leap and ditched their life in Montecito and set themselves up in the ultra-luxury English countryside, the Cotswolds.
The Wrap reported that the duo told friends that Trump's coming to power was the 'primary motivation' and that they planned to 'never return' to the US.
Since their move, the pair has shared snaps of their slower lifestyle, which focuses on their chickens, sheep, and gardening adventures.
In a sweet video shared on social media, the couple revealed that some of their sheep have made a habit of entering their home and making themselves comfortable.
'Our sheep keep coming inside. To be fair, we do have a piece of furniture that looks like a sheep, but that one doesn't try to eat our rugs,' Ellen captioned the video.
In the video Portia could be heard encouraging the sheep to plod back through the kitchen doors to the garden, and not make themselves too comfortable in their home.
The compiled videos of the sheep wandering into their home showed off different angles of their sunlit property with impressive glass doors facing the incredible view of their land.
The home had various rugs laid upon the concrete floor and an industrial style throughout, which included the black metal-framed bifold doors. This contrasted with the country-style brown leather of the sofas and armchairs and patterned warm-toned rugs.
On social media, the star has shared videos of the sheep on her 43-acre property where her 'farmhouse' is situated, but has rarely let fans see inside this home.
Many of her videos detail the sheep managing to escape from their pen and end up wherever they fancy, such as in the garden, or even evicting the chickens from their coop. More Trending
Other video snapshots on their property reveal that the couple also has a lake, swimming pool, and expansive fields surrounding their country home.
Since settling into the country lifestyle, the star has even been spotted making friends with the A-list locals.
A video shared by Jeremy Clarkson's girlfriend Lisa Hogan on Instagram, showed that Ellen and Portia were singing along and enjoying their drinks, sitting by the balcony of The Farmer's Dog, Clarkson's latest venture.
'@thecorrsofficial thanks for the acoustic check & for swooping by on your night off the tour! Trilled to confirm @thefarmersdogpub sounds great. @jeremyclarkson1 @natalie_imbruglia @jamesblunt @ellendegeneres @portiaderossi,' Lisa captioned the post on social media.

This Morning star suffers painful injury after accident during live ITV show
Kate Lawler first found fame when she won Big Brother back in 2002 and has been a television personality ever since This Morning's Kate Lawler suffered a painful hammock injury while on live TV. The Big Brother winner was working on the ITV show when she was telling viewers about the most recent competition. She wished fans of the show "good luck indeed" before saying she was going to sit on the hammock which then didn't go quite to plan. Kate fell straight off the hammock as she perched down but that didn't stop her speaking to the camera. She said "what a better way to enjoy the sunshine" as she scrambled to climb back onto the hammock but to no avail. The end of the clip shows Kate successfully climbing onto the hammock as she proudly announces "I did it". However, Kate then admits that she had "really hurt" her ankle before asking a crew member to pass her an espresso martini. Meanwhile, presenters Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard can be heard laughing in the background as they watch Kate struggling. This comes soon after Kate admitted that she had broken the law. She said that she is in her neighbour's bad books after an altercation involving their shed. The 45-year-old took to Instagram to ask her followers for advice as she said she'd painted the back of the "garish blue" shed black instead. She said that her neighbour had "gone mad" at what she had done despite being the only one who can see the shed. Kate said: "Why do I always get myself in these situations? I'm in trouble with my neighbour for painting the back of their bright blue, garish, shed a different colour. Won't be doing it again as in hindsight I know I should have asked first, but I didn't think it would be a big deal given that they can't see it?" Kate went on to ask her followers if she was actually an "a******e" who "needed to buy flowers". She then asked: "It has made me wonder though… Would you be annoyed if you discovered the back of your shed (which you couldn't see) had been painted by the neighbour whose garden backed on to yours? "Have you had a similar fall out with your neighbour? Basically, am I a******e and should I buy them flowers and a box of milk tray to apologise?" Responding to her post, fellow This Morning star, Lisa Snowdon, replied: "Oops" with a see-no-evil emoji. While another of Kate's followers said: "Honestly .. you should have asked and she should have said yes" as another joked: "Id love it! ..you're the famous Kate Lawler! That's like having a Banksy on your shed." Kate first found fame back in 2002 when she appeared on Big Brother. She managed to win the crown of the series as she was announced the winner. She has previously said that she is glad she applied for the show as she wouldn't have had the career she had without it. Since the win, she has gone on to become a TV presenter, regularly appearing on This Morning.

Since the show she's appeared in Ordinary Lies, Death in Paradise and ITV drama The Salisbury Poisonings. Now, the 39-year-old actress has revealed she has been clinically diagnosed with Autism and ADHD. Sharing a collage of photos of herself crying 'happy tears,' in a grey jumper, the star shared her update with fans. Kimberley wrote: 'Happy tears. Still processing. Haven't read the full report yet but… 'Today I was clinically diagnosed with Autism and ADHD. 'I feel lighter than I have in a long time because instead of feeling like my brain is 'broken', I know now that it was just doing things differently all this time.' She continued: 'I want to go back in time and give my younger self a cwtch and save her a lot of time and heartache but I can't change anything about how I got here really because then I wouldn't be me. 'I've always shared the ups and downs - so I wanted to share this with the most compassionate and accepting bunch I know - and that's been you lot over these past few years. Jack Whitehall reunites with Fresh Meat co-stars 12yrs after joining Channel 4 sitcom 'From the midst of brutal Postnatal OCD through to today's diagnosis, a lot of you have been with me every step of the way. Thank you, thank you.' Fans rushed to the comments to praise the star for her honest words, as one person wrote: 'Congratulations on the first day of the rest of your life.' A second penned: 'We hope it brings you some self-compassion and understanding,' and a third echoed: 'Welcomeeeeee 💛 Go gently with yourself as you adjust to a new inner reality! Xx' What is autism? Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is an incurable, lifelong developmental condition that affects how people perceive the world and interact with others. It affects around one in 100 people in the UK and is three to four times more common in boys than in girls. Many people with ASD find it hard to understand other people's feelings and emotions, and they may have difficulty holding conversations. When they are young, their language development may take longer and they can struggle to use facial expressions, using gestures to communicate instead. They may also find it hard to connect with other people and to hold eye contact with unfamiliar individuals. Many children with ASD like to follow a routine, and changes to this can cause distress. High functioning autism is an informal term some people use to describe those on the autism spectrum disorder. The star is a proud mum to a little boy, and also has a dog, both of which she shares occasional photos of on social media. In a sweet Father's Day post recently, Kimberley praised her partner and posted a carousel of images of him with their adorable son. She wrote: 'To the Dads who not only have a newborn but a struggling partner to care for. 'To the Dads that show up ALL the time even if they're knackered or grumpy or even more knackered. To the Dads who care so deeply but show so little. 'To the Dads that really mean it when it's 50/50. Or 60/40 or 70/30 depending what's going on in life. 'To the Dads who hug and kiss their children and leave them in no doubt how loved they are. To the Dads who always stand up for their partner. 'To this Dad, who never looked away even when things got tough. Who always saw straight through to the heart of me when I lost myself and even I couldn't see it. Who loves me and our son unconditionally but that doesn't mean he'll let us get away with stuff. 'Sometimes Dads get left out of the perinatal mental illness conversation. I've found in a lot of instances, they're the silent, sidelined heroes keeping everything together. Remember that there's help and support for Dads too.' 4 The actress with the Fresh Meat cast Credit: Handout
