    Rosie O'Donnell has left the United States to live in Ireland

    The 62-year-old comedienne revealed on Tuesday (11.03.25) that she and her youngest child Clay, 12, had made the move across the pond almost two months ago following Donald Trump's victory in the US election


    Speaking in a video posted to TikTok, she said: "Well, hey everybody it's me, Rosie O'Donnell. Star of 'The Flintstones'. It's Tuesday all day, as my nanna would say.

    "And I'm here in Ireland. It's beautiful and warm. Not physically, it's actually quite cold. We moved here on January 15 and it's been pretty wonderful, I have to say.

    "The people are so loving, so kind and so welcoming and I'm very grateful. In the process of getting my Irish citizenship as I have Irish grandparents, and that's what's going on, that's what I've been doing.

    "And although I would was never someone who thought I'd move to another country, that's what I thought would be best for myself and my 12-year-old child. Here we are, here we are."

    The 'Harriet the Spy' star - who is also the adoptive mother of Parker, 29, Chelsea, 27, Blake , 25, and 22-year-old Vivienne - is "happy" with her new home even though she "misses" her other children but will only ever think about returning to the US when she thinks it is "safe" to do so.

    She said: "You know, I'm happy. Clay is happy. 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.

    "It's been heartbreaking to see what's happening politically and hard for me personally as well. The personal is political, as we all know."
