In 2010, Portia de Rossi had her book published; “Unbearable Lightness” is an autobiography in which the actress talks about her health problems caused by an eating disorder, and about her relationship with her wife Ellen. The book produced another addition to her net worth.

In her personal life, Portia was married to Mel Metcalfe between 1996 and 2001, and after they divorced she had a relationship with Francesca Gregorini, Ringo Starr’s stepdaughter. In 2004 she started dating Ellen DeGeneres, and after the couple married in 2008, Portia changed her name to Portia Lee James DeGeneres. The couple is considered one of the most powerful in the entertainment industry and their combined net worth is estimated to be $270 million.
