Ellen DeGeneres' wife Portia de Rossi speaks out amid show scandal and thanks fans for their support - 9TheFIX

Portia de Rossi is showing support for her wife Ellen DeGeneres as controversy surrounds the comedian's daytime talk show.

On Monday, August 3, de Rossi, 47, expressed her support for DeGeneres on Instagram: "To all our fans... we see you. Thank you for your support."

The Australian actress concluded her post with the hashtags #stopbotattacks, #IStandWithEllenDeGeneres, #IStandByEllen, #IstandByEllenDeGeneres ‬and #bekindtooneanother, the phrase DeGeneres uses to close out her show.

De Rossi's post comes one week after WarnerMedia launched an internal investigation into the talk show after accusations of a toxic work environment.

On Thursday, DeGeneres, 62, addressed the accusations in a lengthy apology to her employees.

"My name is on the show and everything we do and I take responsibility for that," she wrote. "Alongside Warner Bros, we immediately began an internal investigation and we are taking steps, together, to correct the issues. As we've grown exponentially, I've not been able to stay on top of everything and relied on others to do their jobs as they knew I'd want them done. Clearly some didn't. That will now change and I'm committed to ensuring this does not happen again.

"We all have to be more mindful about the way our words and actions affect others, and I'm glad the issues at our show were brought to my attention. I promise to do my part in continuing to push myself and everyone around me to learn and grow. It's important to me and to Warner Bros. that everyone who has something to say can speak up and feels safe doing so."

Ellen's executive producers Mary Connelly, Andy Lassner and Ed Glavin also said in a previous statement that they take full responsibility for daily operations on the show.

"We are truly heartbroken and sorry to learn that even one person in our production family has had a negative experience. It's not who we are and not who we strive to be, and not the mission Ellen has set for us," the group said.
