Rosie O’Donnell revealed that she feels a renewed sense of safety after relocating abroad in the wake of Donald Trump’s recent election victory. The comedian and actress, known for her vocal criticism of Trump, confirmed that she made the decision to leave the country shortly after the election results were announced.
O’Donnell described the political climate in the United States as increasingly hostile, particularly toward outspoken critics of the administration. She explained that she felt unsafe remaining in the country given the current leadership, prompting her to seek refuge elsewhere.
According to O’Donnell, the move has brought her a sense of peace and relief. She shared that living abroad allows her to speak freely without fear of backlash or political retribution. The longtime entertainer also expressed concern for others in the U.S. who may not have the same option of leaving.
O’Donnell did not disclose her exact location but hinted that she is now residing in a country where she feels her rights and safety are better protected. The relocation marks a significant change for the celebrity, who has been a constant presence in American media and entertainment for decades.
Despite her departure, O’Donnell vowed to continue advocating for causes she believes in and speaking out on social and political issues. She stressed that leaving the U.S. was necessary for her well-being but would not silence her voice.
