Ellen DeGeneres treated her fans to a rare glimpse of her new brunette hair color as she took on an unexpected household chore: mowing the lawn. The 67-year-old comedian, actor and television personality brought the funny in a new Instagram video. In it, she highlights her initial attempt on a lawn mower! The film went on to receive massive public acclaim. It featured DeGeneres joyously frolicking through the emerald pastures of her new estate in the Cotswolds, South West England.
In the video, DeGeneres satirically recorded the ordeal, titling the clips “How it began” and “How it finished.” The video captured her pure joy as she cruised at top speed through the wide open field on her new riding mower. All of that changed when she required assistance in rolling it back up the hill.
“Portia thought it would be fun to film my first time on the mower. She was right.” – Ellen DeGeneres
DeGeneres introduced her new brown tresses back in November 2024. Ever since relocating to the UK with her former wife, Portia de Rossi, 52, she’s been leaning all the way into her new life. The couple made the decision to relocate after Donald Trump’s second presidential win, seeking a more tranquil environment away from the United States. They moved to a beautiful rural community about an hour and a half from London.
More recently DeGeneres was spotted soaking up time at The Farmer’s Dog, a neighborhood bar. She was there with a posse of friends, including Natalie Imbruglia, known for her early 90s hit “Torn.” This trip showcased how the couple has settled into their new community and embraced making the most of life in the Cotswolds.
The colorful tongue-in-cheek video of her lawnmowing mishap highlights DeGeneres’ commitment to engaging with her fans. Fans appreciate her honesty and sense of humor, which just makes them feel more connected to her. As she dives into this new chapter of her life, DeGeneres certainly has people listening with her career accomplishments. She doesn’t shy away from giving us some wild tidbits about her own experiences.
