She’s one half of one of the most high-profile Hollywood relationships but actress Portia De Rossi has admitted that her wife, Ellen Degeneres, is much more popular than she is. The 42-year-old has been married to the talk show host since 2008 and says she has no problems admitting her other half is viewed as the better half.
Portia admits that the public think Ellen is the best one out of the two of them
Portia has recently taken up a role in Kerry Washington’s Scandal and plays a villain in the series – a role she says a lot of the public believe she plays at home anyway.
She said: “When I’m out with Ellen, fans come up to us and say, ‘Oh, my God, Ellen, you’re an angel.’
“And then they look at me and go, ‘And you’re horrible!’ It’s funny.”
