Ellen DeGeneres And Portia De Ross Baby News andi Divorce Rumors: Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi have welcomed a new baby into the family, The Ellen DeGeneres Show host announced on Jan. 14.
Ellen DeGeneres, 57, and Portia de Rossi, 42, adopted an adorable 9-week-old puppy named Kid.
"I have not talked about this yet, but we have a new puppy," Ellen said.
"Portia and I got a puppy and his name is Kid so now we have a kid. Yep. I mean, he is absolutely adorable."
"I named him Kid because, you know, people, there have been rumors forever, 'When are you and Portia going to have a kid?' So now I can say we have a Kid!" Ellen told the audience.
Not everything about the furry new member of the household is so precious, the Ellen DeGeneres Show host admitted.
"I'll tell you, what's not cute is to wake up at 11 and 1 and 3 and 5," Ellen said.
"And then 5 is when he's up, up." Her new daily routine has really put things into perspective for Ellen.
"It really makes me appreciate what it's like to be a mother, because, like, I'm trying to hold a puppy while I'm trying to make coffee. And I can't do anything. He doesn't let me do anything."
The tabloids have been having a ball speculating on their tumultuous marriage, unless of course DeGeneres and de Rossi are happily married.
Some reports say Portia wants to have kids, but Ellen doesn't. Life & Style magazine reported that de Rossi has been undergoing IVF treatments and suggested to DeGeneres that they adopt.
"Ellen said she's realized she doesn't want to be a mom. It was utterly devastating news for Portia. She really hasn't recovered from it," a source told Life & Style.
The insider also claims Ellen and Portia's "relationship is falling apart." She says DeGeneres lives at the couple's Beverly Hills condo and de Rossi lives in their Malibu home.
"A baby is the only thing that Portia wants right now," the insider told Life & Style.
Some reports say Portia de Rossi thinks that adopting a baby could solve the Ellen DeGeneres/Portia de Rossi divorce rumors. But Ellen doesn't agree, reportedly.
"The reason probably isn't all that complicated - DeGeneres can be a pretty selfish lady demanding it's her way or the highway - and she doesn't want a baby," accorsding to Celeb Dirty Laundry. "The couple was rumored to be constantly fighting which led to Portia drinking way too much. Insiders said de Rossi checked into Passages Malibu in May 2014 and completed a 30-day drug and alcohol treatment program."
Ellen DeGeneres recently celebrated the 2,000th episode of her talk show. She celebrated by showing video of celebrities like Emily Blunt, Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber, Halle Berry, Nicki Minaj, Kristen Wiig, Selena Gomez and the Modern Family screaming in terror. DeGeneres has performed 121 scares on The Ellen DeGeneres Show since it began.
