Patti Stanger's Love for Ellen & Portia

Why she's smitten with this couple.

By Lauren Metz



Brad and Jen. Heidi and Seal. Tom and Katie. Does any Hollywood romance stick to the storybook ending?

Cue (still!) head-over-heels couple Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi. Married since 2008, Patti Stanger says on PattiKnows.com, "These blonde beauties have managed to strike an impossibly perfect balance of being very publicly being in love while keeping their lives pretty private. But, that's not why I think these women have still got it. I think their relationship works because they are so focused on and in love with each other's true selves."

Teach us more, P. "In an interview on Ellen, Portia said about Ellen, ‘She's taught me that who I am is perfectly good enough. And that I don't have to pretend to be anything other than who I am,'" writes our Millionaire Matchmaker. "These two are classic lovebirds who don't just complete each other, but enhance each other."

However, their happy marriage is just a toddler compared to Will and Jada Pinkett Smith's 15 year run. "She sends him sexy pics and focuses on being spontaneous to be sure their long-term relationship feels just as exciting as when they met during auditions for The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air," Patti notes about the actress' secret to happily-ever-after. "I love a lady who's not afraid to wear her sexy on her sleeve in front of her man."
