Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, celebrated 14 years of marriage this week.
The former “Ellen DeGeneres Show”, 64, posted a montage of some of her and the actress’ most memorable moments on her now-defunct daytime talk show on Instagram on Tuesday.
The clip showed the couple going crazy during an apple-picking contest and the “Not So Newlywed” game, and a more tender segment where the Rossi, 49, DeGeneres presented her Ellen DeGeneres Wildlife Fund.
“It’s good to be loved. It is profound to be understood.’ I love you @portiaderossi. Happy 14! ❤️,” DeGeneres captioned the video.
De Rossi and DeGeneres wed in August 2008 in Los Angeles. An insider told Vidak For Congress exclusively at the time that the intimate ceremony only had 20 wedding guests.
The comedian and “Ally McBeal” alum’s celebratory milestone comes just days after DeGeneres’ ex-girlfriend Anne Heche died tragically from injuries sustained in a fiery car accident earlier this month.
The “Six Days, Seven Nights” star died last week at age 53 after suffering a serious anoxic brain injury, according to her rep.
Heche was kept on a ventilator for some time until she could be matched with an organ recipient, but was pronounced brain dead on August 5.
At the time, DeGeneres took to social media to express her condolences to her ex’s family.
She tweeted“This is a sad day. I send Anne’s children, family and friends all my love.”
DeGeneres and Heche dated from 1997 to 2000, and their relationship was considered groundbreaking for the LGBTQ movement — as they were one of the few lesbian couples in Hollywood.
At the time of their split in August 2022, the couple released a joint statement to People saying, “It’s a friendly goodbye and we really appreciate the 3 1/2 years we’ve spent together.”
Heche once said years after the split: “The consequences that happened have caused part of the change for me. I am part of it. It is a badge of honor.”
DeGeneres met de Rossi in 2000 — the same year she and Heche split, but the now-married couple didn’t start dating until they reconnected in 2004 at an awards ceremony.
