The truth behind Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia de Rossi U.K. move has been exposed.

RadarOnline.com can reveal the comedian’s move across the pond to kick off her “retirement” is said to have nothing to do with Donald Trump winning the presidential election like so many celebrities who have made similar moves alleged.

Instead, insiders claimed the former daytime TV host packed her bags to escape her “toxic” reputation.

DeGeneres, 66, and the actress, 51, stunned fans when they were spotted out and about in their new rural England town, the picturesque Cotswolds, amid reports they listed their Montecito, California, mansion for sale in the aftermath of the presidential election.

But sources pushed back and claimed the couple had already listed their home for sale long before Trump clinched the election.

An insider told the Daily Mail: “Make no mistake about it. This is Ellen and Portia’s retirement.

“Neither one of them have any projects lined up.”

A major factor in DeGeneres’ “retirement” was said to be her less-than-appealing reputation and subsequent lack of jobs in Hollywood after she was accused of fostering a “toxic” workplace environment on her hit talk show.

The source continued: “Ellen really felt she had made her mark on the industry, but that was diminished when she was cancelled over her alleged treatment of her staff.

“Then to have celebrities call her out one by one was so hurtful.”
