Adding fuel to the fire, DeGeneres and De Rossi unloaded another piece of real estate, a $6 million condo on LA's Wilshire Corridor, according to Variety , thinning out their properties as their marriage crumbled.
"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 spilled to RadarOnline.com. "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."
