"The Ellen Show" host Ellen DeGeneres has always appeared happy during her shows featuring celebrities as guest stars. However, new reports surfaced that she and her wife Portia de Rossi are actually having problems and are headed for divorce.
In Touch Weekly exclusively reported this week that Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi can't seem to agree on different aspects of their relationship that the two are contemplating divorce. A source for the publication allegedly revealed that the talk show host is just putting up a front of being happily married. The source said that it's all for show and "right now she and Portia are hanging by a thread and are headed for a split."
Sources say that after eight years of marriage, Portia de Rossi is tired of Ellen DeGeneres' "controlling behavior." Allegedly, the couple, who have been married since 2008, are also constantly arguing about whether or not they should have children.
In a separate report, it was mentioned that Portia de Rossi is fed up of having Ellen DeGeneres control every aspect of her life. Sources say Ellen wants Portia to follow her ways. "If Ellen's on a cleanse, Portia needs to be on a cleanse. If Ellen quits coffee, Portia needs to quit, too. It's Ellen's world and what she says, goes," sources claimed.
Neither Ellen DeGeneres nor Portia de Rossi made a comment on the split rumors. It should be noted that this isn't the first time that the couple faced such rumors. Just recently, though, DeGeneres talked to E! Online to address the divorce rumors that have surrounded their relationship for years.
"There's no best part [about being married.] It's everything," Ellen DeGeneres said of her marriage with Portia de Rossi. "I can't imagine not being married. I have my best friend, the person I want to spend time with more than anybody else in the world."
