Ellen DeGeneres plans to wed longtime girlfriend Portia de Rossi, she announced during a taping of her show Thursday. In the episode, airing Friday (the news was first reported by TMZ), DeGeneres revealed the big news and told the crowd, "I'm very excited." The announcement immediately followed the news that California's Supreme Court struck down a law banning gay marriage. source
Our advice to Ellen is she had better get a pre-nup. Ellen is the one with all the bank in her relationship with Portia and has the most to lose if she doesn't have a prenuptial agreement to protect her assets. Remember that nasty public breakup she had with Anne Heche after the pair came out publicly as the lesbian "It" couple?
Heche's relationship with comedienne Ellen DeGeneres and the events following their breakup became subjects of widespread media interest. The couple started dating in 1997 shortly after the famous "Puppy Episode" of DeGeneres' eponymous sitcom. At one point, the two said they would get a civil union if such became legal in Vermont. source
If Anne Heche had married Ellen Degeneres then she probably wouldn't be so broke now. TMZ reports that Anne Heche is saying she's broke during her custody hearing with her ex-husband. Anne Heche is now dating her 'Men in Trees' co-star James Tupper. We wonder how long this relationship is going to last. Their show 'Men in Trees' was just canceled. Watch Access Hollywood to learn more about their relationship.
