Ellen's exit from her show was very unceremonious. After dozens of rumors of a toxic work environment surfaced, Ellen's image of kindness seemed to evaporate before her very eyes. For many, it was the beginning of the end of her career. But it seems despite the allegations, Ellen has landed on her feet.
Changing direction
The queen of daytime TV, Ellen DeGeneres, waved goodbye to her iconic talk show in May 2022, leaving fans eager for a glimpse into her post-show paradise. What's the scoop on Ellen's life now that the cameras have stopped rolling? Buckle up, because we've got the exclusive details!
After years of giving us the giggles, Ellen is now soaking up the sun in her lavish Montecito, California home, alongside her wife Portia de Rossi. But don't think she's gone MIA – Ellen's social media is buzzing with blasts from the past, featuring star-studded clips from her show's golden days. Yet, she's revamped her handle to a more personal vibe, keeping the personal takes under wraps.
Tragedy struck when Ellen's dear friend and show's DJ, Stephen "tWitch" Boss, left us too soon at 41. Ellen's heartfelt tribute on social media, "I'm heartbroken. tWitch was pure love and light," tugged at our heartstrings. She urged us all to embrace our loved ones a little tighter, a poignant reminder from a star who's seen her share of ups and downs.
And then, nature's fury hit close to home for Ellen as floods threatened her Montecito haven. The star shared a harrowing clip, revealing their evacuation order, yet reassured fans from her safe spot on higher ground. "Please stay safe everyone," she implored, proving that even off-air, Ellen's concern for others never wavers.
Ellen's got plans
Now she has her sights set on nature.
The former talk-show host has teamed up with Discovery Channel for 'Saving the Gorillas: Ellen’s Next Adventure,' which, according to a press release, leans into her "passion and commitment to animals, and admiration for world-renowned primatologist, Dian Fossey."
"What begins as Portia de Rossi’s simple desire to come up with a nice birthday gift for her wife, Ellen DeGeneres, snowballs into something bigger than anybody could have imagined," the announcement states. "The couple find themselves embarking on one of the largest architectural and landscaping projects in the history of Rwanda, only to collide with challenges like volcanoes, earthquakes, and a global pandemic."
DeGeneres had a dream of protecting Fossey’s legacy by building the Ellen DeGeneres Campus of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund in Rwanda.
"Every single thing has led me to just have a big enough platform to say, ‘Look at work Dian Fossey did,’" DeGeneres says in the documentary. "There’s nothing that keeps you more present, more in the moment, than sitting with gorillas."
