  2. 2 fewer people in Britain saying “can I get”… has to be a net positive.

  5. Why the fuck would you move to the English countryside for anything OTHER than boring? Had they been watching Emmerdale before they came over or something?

  8. Surely the couple with the biggest difference in attractiveness. 

  11. I mean I’m sure everything is boring compared to weekly Diddy parties.

  13. Their Cotswold renovation reportedly cost £20 million and was listed at a considerable loss.

    It seems like the classic case of Americans with bit of a rose tinted outlook on UK country life. But I’m more than happy to let them pay the wages of our skilled trades to renovate our heritage properties.

  14. « freezing cold », « perpetually grey skies » – did they think the weather was going to be pretty much like California?

  19. Wasn’t Trump the main reason she came over? I suppose Trump’s America will always be more fun. If she’s willing to go back, it really can’t be that bad back home.

  20. Good riddance to more trashy career dead celebrities from across the pond.

  21. Not surprised, the Cotswolds are boring as fuck, I just cannot understand why people love it.

  23. Who cares. No one I know has the unlimited resources to play country leapfrog. They are stuck trying to keep their sanity in the good old USA, facing a life under a fascist regime. I just don’t give a fuck where they live.

  25. Often when someone says the ‘thing’ or whatever is boring, kind of makes me think that it’s not the ‘thing’ at all but . . .

  27. It’s the countryside, its supposed to be boring. It’s where you go to retire or write a book or just be the hell away from people. 

  29. Plenty of boring country places in the states. People who get bored are usually just boring people. Energy vampires requiring the substance of fun people.

  30. Ellen, my dear, Midsomar Murders is and always has been a *TV programme*

  33. Americans are obsessed with the Cotswolds. I wouldn’t last 5 minutes living somewhere with such a slow place of life, and I’m a stones throw away from it. American celebrity used to the conveniences of global interconnected cities obviously won’t.

  34. I think Madonna said something similar after buying that Wiltshire ruin with Guy Ritchie.

  35. lol, well Ellen I honestly think it’s the retirement home for you next.

  37. I moved from the tightest council estate in Nottingham to a community with only 12 houses and you can barely see your neighbours house if you stand on your driveway. It did take some getting used to but boring is why I did it. The hardest thing is not having a shop on your doorstep. The nearest thing to us is a petrol station about a 10 minute drive away at night or around 20-30 minutes in the daytime.

    The boring is the main reason for the move though. Peace and quiet and no bother.

  38. Good, we never fucking wanted them here anyway
