Ellen DeGeneres and Whoopi Goldberg Head to England, Leaves The U.S: “No Respect Here”

In a move that has left Hollywood stunned and social media ablaze, Ellen DeGeneres and Whoopi Goldberg have officially announced their decision to leave the United States and relocate to England. The comedic icons and longtime advocates for social justice cited their dissatisfaction with the state of the nation following Donald Trump’s reelection as the primary reason for their departure.

“This isn’t the America we fought for, laughed for, or cried for,” Ellen said in a tearful Instagram post. “We’ve done everything we can, but it’s time to move on.”

Whoopi, speaking from Heathrow Airport, added, “I’ve spent years trying to wake people up. But now? Now I need some sleep—and I’m not going to find it in America.”

The announcement came via a surprise joint video on Instagram, where Ellen and Whoopi were seen sitting in a British tea shop, sipping Earl Grey and munching on scones. “It’s bittersweet,” Ellen admitted, “but this is where we need to be right now. England feels like the home America used to be.”

Whoopi nodded in agreement. “At least here, the politicians are upfront about being a mess. No gaslighting, just bad wigs and cricket metaphors.”

The pair also shared that they have purchased homes in a picturesque English village outside London. Ellen’s new property reportedly comes with a sprawling garden perfect for hosting tea parties, while Whoopi’s has an art studio and a reading nook overlooking the countryside.

The announcement sent shockwaves through Hollywood, with stars and fans alike expressing their disbelief and heartbreak. “Ellen and Whoopi leaving? This feels like losing Mount Rushmore,” tweeted actress Reese Witherspoon.
