'Try not to swim in the chaos if possible, but I know it's nearly impossible when you're there in the middle of it," Rosie O'Donnell said to her fans.
Following in the footsteps of fellow celebrities James Cameron and Ellen DeGeneres, Rosie O’Donnell is done with the United States under President Donald Trump.
The former talk-show host is no longer living in the United States, she confirmed, and has moved to Ireland.
The comedian revealed her international move in a TikTok video posted on March 11, saying that she now lives in Ireland with her 12-year-old daughter, Dakota.
“Moved here on January 15 and it’s been pretty wonderful, I have to say. The people are so loving and so kind, so welcoming. And I’m very grateful,” O’Donnell said.
O’Donnell, 62, said she’s currently in the process of getting her Irish citizenship, revealing that she has Irish grandparents.
“That’s what’s going on and that’s where I’ve been and what I’ve been doing,” she added. “Although I was never someone who I thought would move to another country, that’s what I decided would be the best for myself and my 12-year-old child.”
“I miss my other kids. I miss my friends. I miss many things about life there at home and I’m trying to find a home here in this beautiful country and when it is safe for all citizens to have equal rights there in America, that’s when we will consider coming back,” she said.
