Ellen DeGeneres, born on January 26, 1958, in Metairie, Louisiana, is an American comedian, actress, television host, writer, and producer. She gained prominence with her sitcom “Ellen” (1994–1998) and later hosted “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” from 2003 to 2022, earning 33 Daytime Emmy Awards.
In late 2024, following Donald Trump’s re-election, DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, relocated to the Cotswolds in the UK, expressing disillusionment with the U.S. political climate. They sold their West Hollywood home for $5.2 million in March 2025, marking a significant step in their relocation.
Recently, the couple celebrated their 20th anniversary with a vacation in Africa, reflecting on their enduring relationship. DeGeneres continues to engage with fans through her social media platforms, including Instagram, where she shares personal moments and updates.
