Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi divorce rumours gained momentum over the weekend when the talk show host was spotted on a date with a mystery brunette woman.
DeGeneres seemed to be in high spirits as she and her guest dined at vegan restaurant Crossroads in West Hollywood.
According to Radar Online, DeGeneres looked carefree and it was a far cry from her outing with de Rossi when the talk show host was bickering with her wife. "It seemed like they were fighting," an eyewitness told Radar. "Portia kept trying to talk to Ellen, but Ellen wouldn't even look at her as she screeched out of the parking lot," the insider said.

Meanwhile, a friend of the couple hinted to the publication that de Rossi has not been living with DeGeneres for the past few weeks.
"Portia is tired with being the stay-at-home wife, while Ellen gets the big career and all the attention," a friend of the couple revealed. "Things reached the boiling point a few weeks ago, and after their worst fight ever, Portia packed up and headed to a secluded home they secretly bought in Beverly Hills months ago."
The pal added: "Portia has been holed up there for a couple of weeks, refusing to go back home to Montecito where Ellen's been stewing during her downtime from her talk show," said the pal.
DeGeneres-de Rossi divorce rumours have been swirling around for years now, and in October 2016, DeGeneres shot down these rumours once and for all saying their relationship was stronger than before.
"There's no best part [about being married.] It's everything," DeGeneres admitted to People. "I can't imagine not being married. I have my best friend, the person I want to spend time with more than anybody else in the world."
