The couple had earlier marked their two-decade-long bond in December, when DeGeneres posted a heartwarming dedication to her lover. "Twenty years ago today, we embarked on this journey, unaware of the lengthy and breathtaking voyage ahead," she began her caption on December 1st. "You are the ultimate blessing in my life. You nurture me, help me see the silver lining in everything, steer me right, and lift me up when I'm low."

Accompanying the heartfelt caption was a snapshot of the long-time pair cuddling up in their picturesque new abode in the English countryside, where they had relocated in the autumn of 2024. The glowing tribute hailed de Rossi as a "radiant soul," continuing, "My spouse. My closest confidant. The passion of my existence. Thank you for being you and cherishing me."

The comedian lightheartedly anticipated their first "snow-kissed Christmas" in England with the former 'Ally McBeal' star. Assuring fans that their new home had remained unscathed by the December storms that lashed the U.K., DeGeneres' caption concluded, "P.S. For those worried, our charming UK farmhouse remained dry and high above the floodwaters."

After her long-standing, eponymous talk show concluded in May 2022, the former talk show host ventured abroad, enchanted by a UK house she adored. A source confirmed to PEOPLE in November that she and de Rossi had settled in the picturesque Cotswolds. "Ellen embarked on a house-hunting spree in England in early October. She found a dream home and sealed the deal shortly thereafter," the source revealed.

That month, the duo was spotted at 'The Farmer's Dog,' a pub owned by English TV presenter and journalist Jeremy Clarkson in the Cotswolds. "They socialized with Lisa Hogan, Clarkson's partner, and James Blunt, while The Corrs serenaded the pub," the source added about their relocation.

The Cotswolds is a favorite haunt for U.K. celebrities—the Beckhams, Kate Moss, Elizabeth Hurley, artist Damian Hirst, and former British Prime Minister David Cameron all own homes there. King Charles' estate, Highgrove House, also graces the Cotswolds landscape.
