Ellen DeGeneres has given fans a peek into her new life in England as she shared a video where she can be seen feeding chickens and gardening.
The comedian also showcased her new hairstyle as she gushed about how her "dream was to become a landscape maintenance crew with a little farming on the side."
Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, recently moved into their new hilltop property after flood waters surrounded their former Cotswolds home.
DeGeneres shared a glimpse into her English countryside life on Wednesday, which happens to be a major shift from her talk show career.
The former "Ellen DeGeneres Show" host took to Instagram to show off what her routine looks like, months after she and de Rossi ditched the US for a new life in the UK.
In the clip, DeGeneres kept it casual in brown trousers and a blue hoodie as she worked with a grass trimmer while wearing a protective mask.
Her wife can be heard in the background commending her on a job well done, as she also threw herself into trimming flower bushes in a field on their property, and also feeding their chickens.
DeGeneres showed off her new look as she opted for natural brunette locks rather than her usual bleached blonde.
"Some people have a dream of becoming a farmer. Clearly, our dream was to become a landscape maintenance crew with a little farming on the side," she wrote in the caption.
DeGeneres and de Rossi have seemingly settled down well into their new home, as the legendary talk show host can be seen mowing the grass in a previous Instagram post.
In the clip, DeGeneres sat on top of a yellow mower and disclosed that she'll no longer be going with her signature locks but has settled for a brunette shade.
She can be seen steering the mower across a large field and got help from an individual after the machine seemingly broke down on a steep hill.
The comedian wrote in the caption, "Portia thought it would be fun to film my first time on the mower. She was right."
It comes after the couple said goodbye to their flood-prone £15 million Cotswolds home and relocated to a new hilltop property that cost around the same price in Oxfordshire.
According to the Daily Mail, the new property is around 30 30-minute drive from their Cotswolds mansion and is said to have a "sustainable drainage system" and is not "at risk of flooding."
The property is described as a minimalist single-story house with breathtaking views of the Cotswolds.
It features floor-to-ceiling windows and also has its cinema, gym, steam room, and giant outdoor infinity pool.
The couple had to move after floodwaters surrounded their former home due to Storm Bert.
"Ellen and Portia have had several issues with the place they initially moved into," an insider told the news outlet at the time. "First, there was the flooding, of course, then there was an issue with some locals complaining about some building work carried out at the property."
DeGeneres has already shown off what her new property looks like in an Instagram post she shared with her 136 million followers. She posted photos of her wife admiring their new home, with one shot featuring a rainbow.
Describing the "three things which make me happy" to her followers, she wrote: "My wife, a rainbow, and my wife taking a photograph of a rainbow."
DeGeneres' showbiz career came to a screeching halt after her former staff accused her of fostering a toxic workplace culture on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," as well as claims of racism, sexual misconduct, and intimidation.
Although there were reports that she fled the country because of Donald Trump's emergence at the November polls, a source later claimed that her relocation was to kick off her "retirement."
"Make no mistake about it. This is Ellen and Portia's retirement," a source told the Daily Mail. "Neither one of them has any projects lined up."
"Ellen really felt she had made her mark on the industry, but that was diminished when she was canceled over her alleged treatment of her staff," they added. "Then to have celebrities call her out one by one was so hurtful."
However, another source has now shared that she wants to revive her comedy career in England.
"Ellen wants to continue with her comedy work, and there is a huge scene in Britain," the source told New Idea. "Sitting back and chilling on a beach in Australia is for when she's ready to retire, and Ellen's not there yet."
