Anne Heche recalled telling Portia de Rossi not to pursue her ex-girlfriend, Ellen DeGeneres, during a 2021 episode of her “Better Together” podcast with Heather Duffy.<\/p>\n

In the YouTube video, Heche remembered how she “warned” de Rossi against beginning a relationship with the comedian. Heche and Generes dated for three years before a public break up in 2000, where the actress said a mental health breakdown hours after the relationship ended.<\/p>\n

“By the way, I warned her,” Heche told Duffy. “Portia even asked me about Ellen.”<\/p>\n

She continued: “Portia came to my wedding [to ex-husband Coleman \u2018Coley\u2019 Laffoon in 2001] because I was on ‘Ally McBeal’ with her. Portia even said, ‘I’m gonna go after Ellen.'”<\/p>\n

At the time of Heche and DeGeneres’ relationship, they were known for being a pivotal part of the LGBTQ community as one of Hollywood’s few openly gay couples.<\/p>\n

“You won’t be the poster child, girl, because guess what, that poster child has already been taken,” Heche said. “And by the way, it wasn’t a great spot. But, yours ain’t gonna be any easier.”<\/p>\n

“And I’m telling you now, like, red flag, red flag, red flag!” Heche remembered telling de Rossi. <\/p>\n

“I have been canceled since the day I was born,” Heche said as she defended her “truth” in the relationship.<\/p>\n

Finding humor in her past, Heche joked: “I realized that Ellen drove a Porsche\u2026 and then she married one. All she used to do was drive Porsche’s and she collected them and I just thought it was so stupid because they were so loud. ” <\/p>\n

Heche told Page Six last year that the failed relationship not only blacklisted her from Hollywood, it also “canceled” her from the entertainment industry for a decade.<\/p>\n

“I didn’t do a studio picture for 10 years,” she said of the fallout. “I was fired from a $10 million picture deal and did not see the light of day in a studio picture.”<\/p>\n

DeGeneres, for every part, celebrated every 14-year wedding anniversary to de Rossi on Tuesday, and wrote in an Instagram post: “It’s good to be loved. It’s profound to be understood.” <\/p>\n
