Rosie O’Donnell Breaks Silence on Moving to Ireland After Fleeing Trump’s America – The Shocking Reason Behind Her Decision Revealed!

Rosie O’Donnell’s bold decision to move her family to Ireland has taken the world by surprise. The 62-year-old talk show host and comedian recently broke her silence about her new life in Dublin, revealing the emotional and political reasons behind her decision to leave the United States.

In a candid TikTok video posted earlier this week, O’Donnell shared how she and her 12-year-old child, Clay, have been adjusting to life in Ireland since they relocated in January 2021, just before Donald Trump’s inauguration. The talk show icon admitted that moving to another country wasn’t easy, but it was the best decision for her and her family. “It’s not easy to move to another country, and we really felt as a family this was the safest and best thing for us to do,” O’Donnell explained.

O’Donnell’s son, Clay, who is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, has been resilient in adjusting to their new life, and the move has already had a positive effect on her health. “I feel healthier, I’m sleeping better without the stress and anxiety over what was happening politically in the country,” she shared. O’Donnell’s decision to relocate was driven by her desire to escape the political turmoil of Trump’s presidency.

The move was not just a physical change but also an emotional one for O’Donnell. She admitted that she knew living in America under Trump’s leadership would be too emotionally taxing for her. “I knew that it would really tax me emotionally to have to do that,” she said, referring to the stress of living in Trump’s America. In contrast, she’s found peace and joy in her new home in Ireland, feeling welcomed by the kind and loving people of the country.

While she misses her other children, friends, and life back in the U.S., O’Donnell emphasized that she would consider returning to America when it is “safe for all citizens to have equal rights.” In the video, she reflected on her unexpected decision, saying, “I was never someone who thought I would move to another country,” but now she feels grateful for the opportunity to live in a place where she feels supported and at ease.

O’Donnell has been living in Ireland for nearly two months, and her new life has given her the space to reflect on the political changes she left behind. “It’s been pretty wonderful, I have to say. The people are so loving and so kind, so welcoming,” she added. While she plans to share more about her decision to leave America on The Late Late Show with Patrick Kielty, it’s clear that Rosie O’Donnell’s move to Ireland was driven by personal and political reasons, with no turning back unless her ideal vision for equality in the U.S. becomes a reality.
