Comedian Rosie O’Donnell has recently announced that she has moved to Ireland, citing political reasons as her motivation. In a video posted on TikTok, she shared that she has been granted Irish citizenship and is enjoying the kindness of the people there. Despite missing her family and friends back in the U.S., O’Donnell expressed that she will only consider returning when all citizens have equal rights in America.
O’Donnell’s move is part of a trend among celebrities such as Ellen DeGeneres, Cher, and Barbra Streisand, who have either left the U.S. or spoken about moving due to political reasons. Google search data also showed a surge in Americans looking to move to Canada after Trump’s election win.
During a meeting between Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin and President Donald Trump, a reporter questioned why Ireland would allow O’Donnell to move there, to which Trump responded approvingly. This exchange was the latest development in a longstanding feud between O’Donnell and Trump that dates back to 2006.
O’Donnell encouraged her fans to stand up, protest, and demand adherence to the constitution in the U.S. She also addressed the negative atmosphere on social media, expressing a desire to turn things around and protect their sanity amidst the chaos. O’Donnell’s move adds to the growing number of celebrities seeking refuge abroad due to political unrest in the U.S.
