On March 11, 2025, actress Rosie O’Donnell announced that she had self-deported to Ireland. O’Donnell has made no secret of her progressive politics and has often clashed with President Trump and his supporters. Liberal celebrities have often threatened to move in response to Trump’s electoral success.
In her video, O’Donnell confirmed that she moved to Ireland in January of 2025. She also confirmed that she was in the process of earning her Irish citizenship. The actress stated she would only return to America when Trump was out of office. Conservatives on social media reacted to the news with a mixture of celebrations and jokes.
She began her video by explaining the details of her move. She said, “I’m here in Ireland, and it’s beautiful and warm, not physically. It’s actually quite cold. Moved here on January 15, and it’s been pretty wonderful. I have to say, the people are so loving and so kind, so welcoming.”
O’Donnell also confirmed that she was in the process of gaining Irish citizenship. She said, “I’m very grateful in the process of getting my Irish citizenship, as I have Irish grandparents, and that’s what’s going on, and that’s where I’ve been and what I’ve been doing. And although I was never someone who thought I would move to another country, that’s what I decided would be the best for myself and my 12-year-old child.”
She concluded by giving her conditions for returning to the States. The actress said, “And here we are. Here we are. I miss my other kids, and 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. When you know it is safe for all citizens to have equal rights in America, that’s when we will consider coming back.”

Comments reacted to the news, by celebrating her decision. One reply read, “To someone who cares, please tell Rosie that many Americans appreciate her self-deportation to Ireland. And maybe she’ll meet a nice Leprechaun or something.” A reply stated that, “Haha, good riddance! Rosie’s move to Ireland shows Trump’s policies are working, keeping America great by encouraging critics to leave. Promises made, promises kept!”
Another humorous reply joked America would start a trade war before accepting the liberal actress back. They said, “Dear Ireland, This is your friends, the USA. We want you to know that there will be no take backs. She is yours, and we are sorry. If you attempt to return her, there will be a massive tariff. Please, please, please just do us this solid. XOXO USA.”
Another reply noted how O’Donnell’s attitude is typical for entitled liberals. He said, “The problem with people like ‘Rosie’ is that they can’t agree to disagree and go about their lives with respect for their for fellow man. They are so hard lined in their big city echo chamber beliefs, that they forget other people think differently.”
