Just 30 minutes ago, a shocking piece of news broke in Hollywood on social media and in major newspapers. Portia de Rossi, the longtime partner of the famous MC Ellen DeGeneres, choked up in tears when announcing that Ellen would officially end her decades-long career at the age of 67.

According to Portia in an emotional interview, this decision did not come suddenly but was the result of months of thinking and pondering. Ellen, the American television icon who has inspired millions with her show “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” – felt it was time for her to step back, give the stage to the new generation and focus on the personal values ​​she is pursuing.

“I have never seen Ellen so tired,” Portia said through tears. “She has given her all to the audience throughout her career. But recently, I can feel something is changing. Ellen is no longer excited to step on stage, and every time she films the show, it is like a battle with herself.”

The news immediately shocked the fan community. On social network X (formerly Twitter), thousands of comments expressed regret, sadness and sent deep gratitude to Ellen for the great contributions she has brought to the television industry as well as the LGBTQ+ community.

In a short clip shared right after the announcement, Ellen confirmed: “I am no longer the me of 2003. I am grateful to everyone who has accompanied me on this journey. But it is time for me to be quiet, to listen to myself and live slowly.”

Ellen has been through many ups and downs in her career, especially the wave of criticism directed at her in recent years regarding her work environment and team management. Although Ellen has apologized and tried to improve, those scratches seem to have left a lot of impact on her psychology. Many people believe that is also one of the reasons why Ellen decided to stop.

Currently, Portia said that the two will retreat to live in seclusion on their private ranch in California, focusing on meditation, gardening and volunteering. “We don’t want to live in the spotlight anymore. It’s time to spend time with each other, with family, and with really simple things,” Portia added.

Although Ellen’s departure from the entertainment industry leaves a big void, everyone understands that nothing lasts forever. What matters is that Ellen has left a brilliant legacy, and while she will no longer be seen as a regular, she will forever be a symbol of courage, humor, and kindness.

Fans around the world can only send their blessings and thank Ellen DeGeneres for everything. A legend has come to an end, but her light will never be extinguished.
