When Donald Trump resumed office as the 47th President of the United States, it stirred up quite a reaction across the nation. Among those affected were several celebrities who felt it was time to pack up and seek new horizons abroad, being wary of Trump’s administration.

Following the election results, numerous celebrities shared their intention to leave a Trump-led America.

Eva Longoria

Eva Longoria, a renowned actress, became one of Hollywood’s prominent voices considering a move due to Trump’s presidency. She candidly expressed in an interview with Marie Claire that Trump’s proposed policies could create a “scary place.” Longoria has since been dividing her time between Mexico and Spain, utilizing her privilege to relocate.

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi

The beloved television host and her partner, Portia de Rossi, have moved to the UK. According to a source close to the couple, they aren’t planning on coming back to the U.S. until there’s a change in administration. Their decision stems partly from advocating for LGBTQ+ rights and avoiding what they see as Trump’s antagonism towards the community.

America Ferrera

Another celebrity, America Ferrera, intends on relocating. Though she will continue working in the U.S. and advocating for Latina and women’s rights, she’s considering London as a base for her children’s education. “It’s important to me that my children have the best opportunities,” Ferrera mentioned, emphasizing her priority on their education rather than abandoning the fight back home.

Barbra Streisand

Consistent with her past statements, Barbra Streisand expressed her intent to leave the U.S. if Trump were to reclaim the presidency. As Trump’s second term unfolds, the world waits to see if she acts on this promise.

Laverne Cox

The actress and activist Laverne Cox has thought about relocating due to her concerns over anti-trans sentiment during the Trump administration. Speaking to Variety about feeling vulnerable, she disclosed her fears: “With my privilege, I still feel targeted. The presence of anti-trans campaigns is deeply troubling.”

Lena Dunham

Lena Dunham was vocal about leaving America during the 2016 elections and has since relocated to the UK, her husband’s home country, though not explicitly citing Trump as the reason.

Sophie Turner

Known for her role in ‘Game of Thrones,’ Sophie Turner has faced struggles with U.S. politics, eventually deciding to move back to the UK after her separation from Joe Jonas. In a 2024 interview with Harper’s Bazaar U.K., Turner mentioned gun violence and the reversal of Roe v. Wade as pivotal moments that led her to leave.

Minnie Driver

After living in Los Angeles for three decades, Minnie Driver has chosen London as her new home.

The number of celebrities contemplating or executing a move away from the U.S. following Trump’s election victory is extensive.

Other notable figures considering this shift include Sharon Stone, Vivian Wilson, and Cher, to name a few. Many of these celebrities opt for a change, expressing their hopes in different environments abroad.
