Portia de Rossi rehab - The former "Ally McBeal" star is said to have secretly checked into Passages Malibu rehab facility in early May following an ugly confrontation with wife Ellen DeGeneres.
And while it is said that the couple's relationship has gotten better after Portia de Rossi's rehab stint, other reports seemed to be suggesting that things still aren't that good with the two. As a matter of fact, all is not that well between the actress and the talk show host that even de Rossi's pal Jennifer Aniston has to step in to help her through her troubles.
"After Portia got out of rehab, Jen reached out to her and they've been in close touch ever since," a source reportedly told The Enquirer.
According to the insider, Portia is anxious about her relationship with Ellen DeGeneres, that she and Jen would often talk about her troubled marriage during their unofficial therapy session.
"Jen has listened for hours as Portia poured out her heart over the issues she and Ellen are grappling with, including fighting over whether to have a baby and how to deal with Ellen's jealousy," the insider continued. "Portia confessed to Jen that Ellen is so possessive that she's even threatened by how close Jen and Portia have gotten!"
It was previously reported that Ellen DeGeneres had cheated on her wife before and during Portia de Rossi's rehab stint, and a divorce is imminent. However, the two have continuously put up united fronts in public making people wonder what is the real deal between the couple.
Apparently, things don't look good for the pair and Portia is needing all the support she can get with 45-year-old friend Aniston doing everything to help her, even sending her self-help books and connecting her with yogaguru friend Mandy Ingber, The Enquirer said.
And it seems like Portia de Rossi's rehab stint was just what she really needed with all the said issues surrounding her relationship with Ellen DeGeneres. An upcoming tell-all book by celebrity journalist Randy Jernigan, also threatens to expose the pairs' many marriage secrets.
"Many fans don't know that Ellen and Portia have had a very tumultuous romance since the very beginning," Jernigan told Radar Online.
