ELLEN DEGENERES AND PORTIA DE ROSSI

Ellen DeGeneres is a famous contemporary comedian. She is also the host of a daytime talk show. She rose in the world as the voice of the Fish Dory in Finding Nemo (2003)，a role that captured her rambling comic style. Then she came to prominence in the ranks of stand-up comedy. In the mid-1990s, DeGeneres became a successful television star with her show Ellen.

Ellen has been an icon in the LGBT community, and her relationship with actress-model Portia de Rossi has been an inspiration to many. Ellen began dating Portia in 2004, and they exchanged vows in August 2008 at their home in California. Since there was a ban on same-sex marriage in California before, the couple must have had consultations with lawyers regarding their union. Thankfully, the overturn of the same-sex marriage ban happened, and they have enjoyed their togetherness for 13 years now.
