The Tom and Daisy Award goes to Ellen and Portia.
Comedian Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, are preparing to list their sprawling U.K. farmhouse for a staggering $30 million—after living there for just one month …
[J]ust one month after moving in, the duo ha[s] already decided to move on—having snapped up a much more extravagant dwelling … [In the earlier house, now on the market, they enlisted] a team of 70 workers to rush through renovations so it would be ready … as soon as possible.
… DeGeneres and de Rossi [faced] objections from neighbors over their proposed development of the abode, with three local councilors raising concerns that an extension might “increase flood risk in the village” and “disturb Roman remains.” [O]ther residents expressed concern that the hedge and wire fence at the comedian’s home could lead to flooding if trash gets “caught in the fence” and limits the “flow across the field.”
