Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, are reportedly working through a challenging time in their marriage. According to a source close to the couple, they’ve turned to hypnosis as a method of healing and strengthening their relationship.
The insider, speaking with In Touch Weekly, shared that Ellen has previously undergone hypnosis and introduced Portia to it as well. “Ellen has undergone hypnosis before, and she’s got Portia hooked on it too,” the source revealed. The couple now attends sessions together, which has reportedly had a significant positive impact on their mental and physical well-being.
“Falling into a soothing, half-conscious state is something they look forward to, like taking a nice nap on holiday,” the insider explained. The practice is not only relaxing but is also helping them reconnect and rediscover the reasons they fell in love. “It’s reminding them why they fell in love and creating a fresh start by helping them get over things in the painful past, such as Ellen’s cancellation,” the source continued.
The couple’s use of hypnosis appears to be helping them regain strength as partners. “It’s relaxing them,” the insider added, noting that the therapy is reducing tension in their relationship. “They hardly argue anymore, and Ellen’s happier than she’s been in a long while.”
As they continue this journey of healing, the insider expressed optimism about their future. “Ellen can get back to her stand-up routine with confidence and know she’ll have Portia at her back,” the source concluded, highlighting the support the two continue to offer one another.
By turning to hypnosis, Ellen and Portia are finding new ways to move past their struggles and build a stronger bond as a couple.
