Jeremy Clarkson and Ellen DeGeneres ‘feud’ reignited after Clarkson’s Farm cut

Jeremy Clarkson seems to still be at odds with neighbour Ellen DeGeneres as she’s missing from the new Clarkson Farm series.

The US talk show host relocated with wife Portia de Rossi from California to the Cotswolds in 2024, living a stone’s throw from Jeremy’s famed farm.

After they moved, the couple appeared to be on good terms with the former Top Gear presenter and headed to a special night out at his pub, The Farmer’s Dog.

At the time, Jeremy’s partner Lisa Hogan posted clips of Ellen, 68, and Portia, 53, enjoying The Corrs’ impromptu gig – inadvertently confirming their move to the UK.

The couple had been keeping their relocation quiet, reportedly motivated by escaping Donald Trump’s second term, but the video blew that secret wide open.

Finally, the footage of that one-off gig has made it to screens in the latest episodes of Clarkson’s Farm. Only Portia and Ellen are nowhere to be seen.

Series five of the Amazon show focuses on the opening of the pub, with Jeremy revealing how The Corrs’ performance came about.

In episode two, he teases: ‘Some very special guests are inbound. I’d always been keen for the pub to host live music evenings. Lisa, having trawled through her Irish address book, had managed to book The Corrs.’

As the band performs, the camera pans to the crowd, who are happily dancing away, but there’s no sign of Ellen and Portia.

In Lisa’s original video, the couple, along with James Blunt and Natalie Imbruglia, were on the busy first-floor balcony overlooking the stage.

However, in the edited version, none of the group can be seen.

Sources have suggested that Lisa’s exposure of the couple’s move created a rift between them, which appears to have not been healed.

‘The interest around them was frenzied,’ an insider told The Daily Mail of the impact the viral video had.

‘The moment it was realised they had moved in near the Farmer’s Boy, there were paparazzi photographers swarming everywhere for weeks on end.’

The source added: ‘This didn’t enamour Ellen and Portia with the area and was in some part why they eventually moved away.’

Ellen and Portia had purchased a reported $30million (£22.5m) farmhouse on their initial move, but are said to have relocated a few months later.

Now, they have reportedly purchased another home in California and are splitting their time between the UK and the US.

A real estate insider told People that Ellen was ‘missing the California weather and horse scene’, which had prompted the partial move back.

Last year, The Ellen DeGeneres Show star shared a video of her two small dogs playing in a large open-plan kitchen and living room, complete with huge muted, patterned carpets and various beige seating areas.

However, locals told People she’s not been seen at the home or in the area in ‘several months’.

The move is not unusual as Ellen is known for her penchant for flipping houses, having moved from around 35 properties over the years.

Metro has reached out to Clarkson’s Farm and Degeneres’ team for comment.
