Portia de Rossi was hospitalized for appendicitis, Fox News learned.
The 48-year-old actress underwent surgery on Friday and is now at home recovering with his wife Ellen DeGeneres, according to a People magazine report.
A representative of the couple told the outlet that de Rossi is “doing well”.
The “Arrested Development” star is not the only one who has struggled recently in terms of health. DeGeneres, 63, tested positive for COVID-19 in December 2020.

The couple married in August 2008 after same-sex marriage was legalized in California.
“We grew up together as a couple and we really consider ourselves and put our relationship first,” de Rossi previously told the magazine about their relationship. “In doing so, you become much more solid. I can’t imagine spending time with anyone but her.”
DeGeneres added. “We think the same things, say the same things at the same time, finish each other’s sandwiches – no, phrases. We are at a pace that is easy.”

The couple insisted that they still found new things to enjoy each other on a daily basis.
“To begin with superficially, I love how she looks,” said DeGeneres of his wife. “I love her brain; she is smart. This is very important. She is strong. She is confident. She is very funny. And she dresses well and dances well. She is learning to cook.”

The Emmy winner also spoke about how de Rossi sided with her when she was examined last year after several former employees claimed a toxic work environment.

“It broke my heart,” admitted DeGeneres on his way out of the charges. “I couldn’t have gone through everything I went through without her. It was a horrible time in my life, and she was a rock. She kept me moving and tried to help me put things in perspective.”
