Ellen DeGeneres' Mansion-Hunting in Montecito: A Shift from Political Activism to Luxury Real Estate
Ellen DeGeneres recently made headlines for her return to Montecito, where she was spotted mansion-hunting. Despite calling for a nationwide shutdown in protest of ICE brutality in Minnesota, Ellen was seen touring two luxurious properties worth $35 million and $17 million. Accompanied by her wife, Portia de Rossi, Ellen seemed to have shifted her focus from political activism to luxury real estate in one of California's wealthiest neighborhoods. This move comes after Ellen had previously expressed a desire to leave the United States following Donald Trump's election, opting for a more politically charged life in the UK. However, her recent actions suggest a different direction for the talk show host.
