Ellen DeGeneres criticisms
Last summer, DeGeneres was plagued with countless criticisms regarding her alleged behavior towards her staff and fans. Ellen Show was also slammed amid claims that there’s a toxic work environment on the set of the program.

Portia de Rossi staying with her wife because of the benefits
Rumors about Ellen DeGeneres and de Rossi’s marriage have also been rife for years. In April, Woman’s Day claimed that the couple’s marriage is at breaking point.
“Ellen’s always been, shall we say… determined. But the past few years she’s crossed the line and pushed her staff way too hard. They’re terrified of her. Ellen has always had the upper hand over Portia and that’s the way she likes it. She bosses her around like nobody’s business and Portia puts up with it because she feels like Ellen gave her this luxurious existence in mansions and all the pet horses she could ever have dreamed of,” the source said.
Portia de Rossi’s cooking show is making her wife jealous
In June, Globe claimed that DeGeneres refused to support de Rossi’s dream of having her own cooking show. After all, the funny woman is, allegedly, jealous that de Rossi would become more famous and successful than her.
However, one should take these claims with a grain of salt. Ellen DeGeneres and de Rossi aren’t having issues in their marriage. They have been together for over a decade and the fact that they’re still together means they’re doing something right.
