ELLEN DeGENERES and wife PORTIA de ROSSI have been plunged into a booze and drug nightmare – as the talk show queen raced to save her companion’s life, say sources.
Ellen, 56, reportedly checked her 41-year-old wife into the Passages Malibu rehab center in May for a 30-day treatment program.
Reports emerged that substance abuse sparked the decision to get help – but The ENQUIRER has learned from a source that cocaine may have played a role in the crisis. The “Arrested Development” star secretly entered the facility as the couple’s five-year marriage unraveled amid reports that Ellen was cheating and that the couple had engaged in vicious shouting matches.
