Rosie O’Donnell has been spending some time in New York City over the summer, and is having the best time!
On Saturday, the actress and comedian – who left the USA for Ireland in 2025 after Donald Trump became president – shared pictures from her fun night out in the city, which certainly got fans talking.
Rosie took to Instagram to post photos from a trip to the theatre, where she joined singer Orfeh to watch Mariska Hargitay in her Broadway debut Every Brilliant Thing. The pair met up with Nicole Kidman – who happened to be celebrating her 59th birthday – along with her daughters, Sunday, 17, and Faith, 15.
Along with a group picture of herself with Orfeh, Nicole and Mariska, taken at the Hudson Theatre bar, Rosie also shared a glowing selfie of herself and Orfeh seated ahead of the show.
The pictures were met with comments which included: “Rosie, you look so beautiful,” and “You look amazing Rosie,” along with: “Rosie, you look fantastic!” Other comments asked Rosie whether she was back in America for good. “Rosie, are you staying?” one fan enquired, to which she replied: “No there’s another school year there for Clay – when he’s out – I will be back.”

She told Entertainment Tonight: “I feel really great. I mean it was very easy. Just not to have the lines that made me look sad, ’cause people would see me in Ireland and go, ‘Oh, something wrong darling?’ and I’m like ‘No, that’s my face.'”

“Whenever a celebrity who had a weight problem their whole life all of a sudden gets very thin, and they don’t announce that they’re on Mounjaro, I think it does a disservice to everybody who ever struggled with obesity.”

The facelift followed after Rosie lost 50 lbs after being prescribed the GLP-1 weight loss medication, Mounjaro, to control her diabetes.
