Ellen DeGeneres has set the record straight after rumors swirled online claiming her and wife Portia de Rossi’s UK home had flooded.
Taking to Instagram Sunday, the comedian, 66, shared a loving tribute to the “Arrested Development” alum, 51, on their 20th anniversary.
“20 years ago today we began this relationship not realizing what a long beautiful adventure this would be,” the former talk show host wrote alongside a selfie of the pair in the British countryside, where they recently relocated.
“You are the best thing that ever happened in my life. You take care of me. You help me see the good in everything. You help to guide me and pick me up when I feel off or down.”
DeGeneres continued, “You are a beautiful soul that I am so very grateful to have as a partner to navigate this crazy life with. My wife. My best friend. The love of my life. Thank you for being you and loving me.”
“So happy we get to travel and explore the world together in the next 20 years, and looking forward to our first snowy Christmas,” she wrote.
The “Finding Nemo” star concluded her post by dispelling rumors that the duo’s English abode had flooded following a storm.
“P.S. for those of you concerned, our UK farmhouse did NOT flood,” she added.
The couple recently purchased a multi-million pound property in the Cotswolds, about two hours outside of London, and are looking to plant a firm root there following Donald Trump’s election win last month.
However, last week the Daily Mail reported that the couple’s 43-acre grounds were underwater after the River Thames broke its banks in the wake of Storm Bert.
While numerous roads in the Cotswolds had been left impassable after being saturated in five feet of water, it appears as though DeGeneres and de Rossi’s pad was unharmed.
Last month, it emerged that the couple, who wed in 2008, relocated to England in the wake of Trump’s presidential election victory over Vice President Kamala Harris.
Sources previously told the Wrap that the pair had packed up and moved across the pond in a desperate bid to start afresh.
The couple will likely “never” return to the US on a permanent basis, the report added.
Separate insiders told TMZ that the duo decided to “get the hell out” of the country immediately following the president-elect’s victory, which left them feeling “very disillusioned.”
During election season, DeGeneres was vocal about her support for Harris, and reportedly even forked out $3,300 to donate to Harris’ campaign.
While it’s not clear exactly why DeGeneres and her wife decided on the Cotswolds, the region is a picturesque and wealthy part of England, with many British stars boasting country houses there.
Their star-studded list of neighbors includes David and Victoria Beckham, Kate Moss and Elizabeth Hurley.
The area is also home to royalty, as King Charles and Queen Camilla own Highgrove House in Gloucestershire.
