PORTIA DE ROSSI, WIFE OF ELLEN DEGENERES

Portia de Rossi and Ellen DeGeneres have stayed strong through the years and continue to prove that they will stand by each other during hard times. They met in 2004, and their chemistry was off the charts, but they were both dating other people at that time. However, their attraction was so strong that they decided to be together in the right way. De Rossi had her own struggles, but DeGeneres helped her through her bad times. Their relationship bloomed, and they got married in an intimate ceremony in 2008, days after California legalized same-sex marriage. This trailblazing act showed their love and support for each other.

De Rossi supports her wife’s career as a popular talk show host, and DeGeneres does the same for her. De Rossi is a former actress who gained recognition when she played the role of lawyer Nelle Porter in Ally McBeal. She officially retired from acting in 2018 but made an exception for one of her television shows, Arrested Development.
