Ellen DeGeneres Reportedly Asked Portia De Rossi To Leave Amid Divorce Rumors

It seems the divorce rumors plaguing Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi aren’t going anywhere soon. The latest scoop is that the talk show host has now allegedly asked the actress to leave their house.

A source came forward this week to claim that DeGeneres and de Rossi are leading separate lives as they continue to fight a lot. The couple is also said to be “barely on speaking terms,” according to a report published by New Idea.

According to the insider, Ellen is getting quite jealous over Portia’s decision to focus on her career as an actress, which is leaving them little time to be with each other. As de Rossi juggles a tight schedule, DeGeneres is “incredibly demanding” to spend time with her wife more.

DeGeneres is seemingly getting on de Rossi’s nerves. The source said that when she’s busy working, Ellen would frequently call. This has reportedly led Portia to put her phone on silent, just so she won’t be bothered by her partner.

However, the problem doesn’t end there, since Ellen would allegedly ask a lot of questions when Portia comes home because the former is “determined to keep track of [her wife’s] every move,” especially when she comes home late.

The insider even claimed that Ellen has asked Portia to leave the house on more than one occasion, mostly during the times when they would fight about the actress’ lack of time to be there for the stand-up comedian.

Although DeGeneres feels that she’s being unreasonable, she still continues to do all these things because she’s not used to not having Portia by her side most of the time. The source said she’s actually having a hard time adapting to the changes, but she’s willing to support Portia’s career in the long run.

Both DeGeneres and de Rossi have yet to respond to the latest report about their alleged marriage crisis. But it’s worth noting that the report comes more than a week after they listed their oceanfront estate in Carpinteria, California for $24 million.

The 6,862-square-foot property boasts of 3-4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms and a detached guesthouse. The couple bought the property for $18.6 million less than two years ago. It was originally owned by prominent L.A. developer Robert F. Maguire III.
