November 8, 2024: Following Donald Trump’s victory over Kamala Harris in the recent US election, several Hollywood icons have publicly expressed intentions to leave the country, citing political and social concerns. With Trump securing the presidency with 295 Electoral College votes against Harris’s 226, some stars feel a move abroad might be necessary.
America Ferrera
Actress America Ferrera, best known for her role in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, is reportedly considering relocating to the UK with her family. The 40-year-old actress is devastated by Harris’s loss and wants a more hopeful future for her children, according to insider sources.
Sharon Stone
Basic Instinct star Sharon Stone hinted earlier this year at possibly moving to Italy. Stone had criticized Trump’s platform as one of “hate and oppression,” expressing her disillusionment with the political climate.
Cher
A vocal opponent of Trump, singer and actress Cher has long voiced her frustrations. In a 2023 interview with The Guardian, she admitted to nearly getting an ulcer during Trump’s last term. She vowed to leave the country if he returned to power.
Sophie Turner
British actress Sophie Turner, known for Game of Thrones, has expressed a blunt reaction, stating she would “get the f–k out” and return to the UK if Trump regained power.
Raven-Symoné
During Trump’s initial run in 2016, actress Raven-Symoné said on The View that she would leave the country if a Republican candidate won. While she remained during Trump’s first term, her future plans remain uncertain following the recent election.
Minnie Driver
British actress Minnie Driver has already left the US, moving back to the UK after nearly 30 years in Los Angeles. Speaking to The Times in July, she indicated that if Trump returned to office, she would struggle to consider moving back to the United States, especially if she lived in a Republican-leaning state.
