Former ALLY MCBEAL star PORTIA DE ROSSI shocked her 99-year-old grandmother by revealing she was in a lesbian relationship with talk show host ELLEN DeGENERES, because her grandmother thought they were platonic housemates.
The actress recently came out to her mother after the her relationship with the talk show host was made public, and asked her to explain the situation to her grandmother, who lives in Melbourne, Australia.
De Rossi explains, "My grandmother knows every actor, every TV personality who has ever lived. My mom had met Ellen and spent time with us. I told her to show my grandma photos of me and Ellen and to kind of tell her for me.
"So she went back, showed her photos and said that we lived together, so I thought it was done. When I told my grandma, she was completely surprised. I then turned to my mother and said, 'I thought you told her.'
"And Granny said, 'I knew you were living with Ellen and all this time I was thinking, 'I hope that lesbian isn't hitting on my granddaughter!'"

I know she was with a woman for a long time before ditching her to hook up with Ellen, but I just don't get a lesbian vibe from her at all. *shrug*

Sounds like something my grandmother would have said. Then again,
I don’t think my grandmother would have even known what lesbian
means.

Probably something to do with living on opposite sides of the globe ie Australia. Probably not the best thing to break to grandma over the phone.
