Why Ellen DeGeneres And Portia de Rossi Sold Their Brand New House To Sean Parker

After In Touch Weekly reported that de Rossi went to Passages Malibu rehab in May for 30 days, a new report claims that she also taped fights with her wife DeGeneres when she was intoxicated. "Portia secretly taped some of their arguments. She was drunk," a source said. "Then she threatened to expose Ellen as controlling and manipulating."

"Portia hadn't been happy for a while and was drinking and isolating, and Ellen confronted her," a source told the magazine earlier. "Portia lost it and blamed Ellen for driving her to drink because of her controlling ways and said she wasn't in love with her anymore. Ellen was crushed and screamed at Portia to get out."

Although the couple has had problems, de Rossi entering treatment was apparently one of the first steps to get their marriage back on track. "Portia going to rehab was the first step in saving their marriage," insists the source. "They want their marriage to work more than anything."

"They both love to celebrate special occasions and holidays, and their wedding anniversary is no different. They usually celebrate with a big party and invite a lot of friends," an insider told People. "They really are a lovely couple. They enjoy being married, and it shows."
