Ellen Degeneres and Portia De Rossi is a love story made in heaven. They got married in 2008 with a love that conquered boundaries. The comedienne TV host even dedicated her award to Portia during the Teen Choice Awards, in celebration of seven years of togetherness. Ellen gave a heartwarming speech during the event, and her focus was on self acceptance. According to Youth Health, Ellen shared that the Awards happened to coincide with her wedding's 7th anniversary. She also stated, "I won a People's Choice Award; I would think that teens would be in that category. I don't know why teens are not in the 'people' category, but if they are breaking it down, I would like an award from the elderly and babies - if that is going to happen-to cover everybody."
However, despite all these heartwarming dedications and long years of marriage, the couple is still not free from controversies of legal separation. Rumors have spread that Ellen and Portia has already been living in separate homes since this April. Also, Australia Network News has stated that the couple has visited a therapist for consultation and to help them save their marriage. "It was a very unhealthy situation, but they have begun the healing process. They are finally dealing with their issues.", their source said.
It has also been reported that the couple had a discussion about Ellen's desire to get a plastic surgery to deal with her eye wrinkles. However, it was said that Portia is not very thrilled about this idea.
However, a post also stated that Ellen and Portia have also considered renewing their vows on TV. Rumors can be confusing and the only thing that is certain is that marriage isn't a simple thing. If Ellen and Portia are experiencing troubles every now and then, it can actually be considered normal.
No matter what the two are going through, they seem to always have a good handle on problems. Ellen is best known for her optimism towards things. Portia on the other hand has not shown any negativity as well. So we can definitely say that the couple got everything on hand.
