Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi are setting the record straight about their enduring relationship, proving that love thrives amid speculation.

On December 1, the iconic comedian and talk show host shared a heartfelt selfie with her wife, celebrating two decades together. The touching post, filled with warmth and gratitude, read, “20 years ago today we began this relationship not realizing what a long beautiful adventure this would be. You are the best thing that ever happened in my life. You take care of me. You help me see the good in everything. You help to guide me and pick me up when I feel off or down. You are a beautiful soul that I am so very grateful to have as a partner to navigate this crazy life with. My wife. My best friend. The love of my life. Thank you for being you and loving me. So happy we get to travel and explore the world together in the next 20 years, and looking forward to our first snowy Christmas.”

In addition to celebrating their love, DeGeneres addressed concerns about their UK farmhouse amid flooding reports, stating, “P.S. for those of you concerned, our UK farmhouse did NOT flood.” This reassurance not only comforts fans but also refutes unfounded rumors that have circulated.

This post puts to rest two significant misconceptions: Firstly, it confirms that their beautiful home remains unaffected by recent weather events, and secondly, it reinforces their commitment to one another, quelling persistent breakup rumors.

For those unfamiliar with their journey, Ellen and Portia first crossed paths at a Rock the Vote concert in 2001 but didn’t spark a romance until reconnecting in 2004. Their connection blossomed after both parted ways with previous partners. Since tying the knot in an intimate ceremony at their Beverly Hills home in August 2008, their love has only strengthened over the years.

This anniversary not only showcases their undying affection but reminds us that true love can overcome the hurdles created by public scrutiny. As they look ahead to their future adventures together, fans are left inspired by their story of resilience and passion. Is there a chance we might see another celebration for their two-decade milestone in the future? Time will tell!
