TALKSHOW queen Ellen DeGeneres has a little bit of Hollywood in her £15million British bolthole — Sir Michael Caine’s loo.

The US TV star and her wife, Portia De Rossi, were thrilled to find the mahogany throne was once owned by The Italian Job star, now 91.

It was bought and installed by the previous owner of their Cotswolds estate.

It was put up for auction when Sir Michael downsized from his Oxfordshire mansion in 2022.

A source said: “The last owners renovated the property incredibly well, and Ellen and Portia fell in love with it immediately.

“There are chimney pieces sourced from Belgium and doors found in France — but the pièce de résistance is Michael Caine’s old mahogany bog. It’s a real talking point.”

Ellen and ex-actress wife Portia, 51, have reportedly moved to Britain from LA in despair at Donald’s Trump’s re-election.

Pub goers were left gobsmacked as they spotted the US star at Jeremy Clarkson's pub last month.

The TV star looked unrecognisable next to her wife during an evening out at The Farmer's Dog.

In a video posted by the watering hole, DeGeneres and her wife Portia, 51, were among guests listening to music from 90s icons The Corrs.

The act brought their nostalgic hits to life with an intimate acoustic set.

Ellen swapped her trademark blonde tresses for a brunette look and was wearing a black turtle neck jumper, while actress Portia matched her in a black outfit.
