All the Celebrities Who Left the U.S. After Trump’s Election as President

The political climate in the United States has sparked heated debates and personal decisions, particularly in light of Donald Trump’s recent return to the presidency as the 47th President of the United States. Following his inauguration on January 20, 2025, Trump became the first person convicted of a felony to assume the office, a historical event that has both captivated and divided public opinion.

Many Americans have expressed concerns over how Trump’s presidency might impact their lives, and among them are numerous high-profile celebrities. Some of these public figures have shared their apprehensions openly, while others have reportedly begun taking steps to leave the U.S. entirely, citing fears about the country’s direction under Trump’s leadership. Notably, a significant number of these individuals are women.

Below is a detailed look at celebrities who have either already relocated or are seriously considering leaving the U.S. due to Trump’s presidency.

Eva Longoria: Finding Solace Abroad

Actress Eva Longoria was among the first to confirm her departure from the U.S. Longoria now splits her time between Spain and Mexico, expressing concerns about the potential implications of Trump’s policies. Speaking to Marie Claire, she described her anxiety:

“If he keeps his promises, it’s going to be a scary place. I’m privileged—I get to escape and go somewhere. Most Americans aren’t so lucky. They’re going to be stuck in this dystopian country, and my anxiety and sadness is for them.”

“As a public figure, with all my privilege, I’m scared. I feel like I could be targeted. I think they spent close to $100 million on anti-trans ads. It’s deeply concerning.”

Minnie Driver: Torn Between Two Worlds

British actress Minnie Driver, who has lived in Los Angeles for decades, expressed mixed feelings about staying in the U.S. under a Trump administration. Speaking to The Times, Driver explained:

“If I lived in a red [Republican] state, no, I couldn’t. But living in California, you are somewhat insulated. But do you want to go and live in a bubble? Do you run away from the fire, or do you go back and help?”

A Growing Trend Among Celebrities

The trend of celebrities considering relocation highlights the polarizing impact of Trump’s presidency. While some have already left the U.S. for a new chapter abroad, others remain on the fence, torn between their desire to escape and their sense of responsibility to address issues at home.

As Trump’s administration unfolds, the decisions of these public figures will continue to reflect the broader cultural and political shifts within the nation. For now, their stories serve as a reminder of the deeply personal and often complicated responses to America’s evolving political landscape.
