Alyssa Milano Ditches Red States, Says She May Even Leave the U.S.
Actress and activist Alyssa Milano is making headlines again—this time for a major lifestyle change that’s stirring debate. Milano has announced she’s selling all of her properties in Republican-led states and relocating to a blue state, citing political and cultural differences as the reason behind her decision.
A Personal Move Driven by Politics
Milano, long known for her outspoken progressive views, says she no longer feels safe or comfortable living in states whose policies clash with her values. She specifically pointed to issues like abortion rights, LGBTQ+ protections, and gun control as deal-breakers.
“I no longer feel comfortable or safe living in areas that don’t align with my values,” she said in a recent interview. “It’s heartbreaking, but the current political climate leaves me no choice.”
She hasn’t revealed where she’s headed next, but sources suggest she’s eyeing progressive strongholds like California or New York—states where her activism and beliefs are more likely to resonate.
Is an International Move Next?
Even more striking, Milano hinted that she might go beyond moving states—and leave the country altogether. “If things continue to go in this direction, I might leave the U.S. entirely,” she said. “I want my family to grow up in a place where equality and compassion are priorities.”
Her comments come at a time when a number of public figures have considered—or followed through with—relocating abroad due to political frustrations.
Reactions Are Divided
As expected, Milano’s announcement sparked a mix of reactions online. Supporters applauded her for taking a stand and making decisions that reflect her values.
“She’s doing what a lot of people wish they could—taking action, not just talking,” one fan tweeted.
But critics weren’t as impressed. Some labeled the move dramatic or tone-deaf, accusing her of virtue signaling. “Just another Hollywood elite trying to make a political statement no one asked for,” wrote one detractor.
