Ellen DeGeneres is celebrating 11th anniversary with her partner Portia de Rossi and posted on social media regarding the same on Friday.

The couple is one of the most adored couples in Hollywood.

Ellen put up a picture of them along with a caption wishing Portia a happy anniversary. She revealed through the post that it was their eleventh anniversary and called Portia her favorite person.

The picture showed Portia, 46, wearing a beautiful, plunging white gown and holding Ellen’s hand who is in a white suit.

The couple began dating in 2004 after they met backstage at some award show and have been together since then.

Before their high profile relationship, their sexualities and relationships were the focus of media.

Ellen came out on air of her show Ellen in 1997 and changed TV forever.  Meanwhile, her to-be wife, Portia was married to Met Metcalfe until 1999.

She explained that it was a green-card marriage and she never followed through with it. Even though she was outed in tabloids, she did not accept her sexuality when she was seen with Francesca Gregorini.

Portia only embraced her sexuality openly when she began a relationship with Ellen. In 2015, she told that she did not disclose her sexuality as everyone in her life who mattered knew about it.

She was also living a full, rich life and was continuing her career. She revealed further that she had a very difficult and long journey with her sexuality.

Ellen proposed Portia for marriage after same-sex marriage was legalized in California in 2008. They got married at their Beverly Hills home.

They have since then supported each other, built a rich estate portfolio, along with adopting three cats and four rescue dogs.
