Not sure if you are ready to hear this news! Ellen DeGeneres is considering leaving her popular daytime talk show 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show.' In a recent interview with The New York Times, the 60-year-old comedian said her duties as host may end and conflicting advice from her brother, Vance DeGeneres, and her wife, Portia de Rossi, has only made the decision harder. 

According to the Times, DeGeneres recently took the option to extend her contract until the summer of 2020, although she had been close to declining and retiring. The conflict comes here; Vance thinks his sister should continue the show because she plays a positive, unifying role in today’s socio-political climate, while her wife wants DeGeneres to spread her creative wings.
