In fact, the Australian-American actress revealed the secret of their long-lasting bond to Entertainment Tonight, as published by Hollywood Life. "We're just really good friends and we talk about everything, and we never ever, ever lie to each other, like, not even the tiniest lies," she gushed. Portia De Rossi also explained that Ellen DeGeneres is the only person she wants to go out with, her best friend and the one she wants to be with all the time.
Ellen DeGeneres Reveals Their Special Bond
Ellen DeGeneres, on the other hand, told "Oprah's Master Class," via Huffington Post, last fall that her relationship with Portia De Rossi is something different compared to her previous romances. The comedienne described their bond as an "equal love" and they both love and respect each other equivalently. But more than the love they have, she explained that their connection involves a "deep understanding" for one another.
Ellen DeGeneres even disclosed a cliché that it is, indeed, nice to be loved by someone, but being understood by the one you love is more magnificent. With all that she and Portia De Rossi have been through, she revealed that she already learned the significant ways of love and life. "I've learned that if something's good, it's good."
