Ellen DeGeneres and her partner Portia De Rossi receive approval to build new stables at their £22 million farm in the Cotswolds after a planning dispute with neighbours, according to reports. The decision follows a “planning battle” in which neighbours raised concerns about the impact of the planned work, including claims that it could damage or destroy Roman remains on the property. The reports state that DeGeneres and De Rossi are set to remain at the farm, which has also been described as having been affected by flooding. The coverage focuses on the contrast between local objections and the planning outcome, indicating that authorities allow the stables project despite earlier fears from residents. No additional details on the specific planning authority, timeline, or conditions attached to the approval are provided in the excerpts. The information presented reflects the accounts from the same outlet, emphasizing both the approval granted for the stables and the concerns raised regarding potential archaeological effects.
