Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, hit the refresh button on their wedding vows after more than 14 years of marriage.
The former talk show host took to social media on Thursday to share videos from their surprise ceremony, which was officiated by Kris Jenner and featured a performance by Brandi Carlile.
“Portia surprised me at her birthday party by renewing our vows,” DeGeneres, 65, captioned the Instagram post.
”Thank you @KrisJenner for officiating and @BrandiCarlile for performing, and Portia for being the greatest gift to me, even on your birthday.”

In the clip, de Rossi walked through a crowd of people wearing the same white halter-top gown she wore when she first wed DeGeneres in 2008. As she found her way to the “Finding Dory” star, who sported a blue jacket, khaki slacks and blue sneakers, she handed her a bouquet of white roses.
“Welcome to Portia’s birthday party and to the newest homes of one of my favorite couples,” Jenner, 67, said, as the couple stood before her, looking happy as ever.

“You don’t have to say anything at all,” the “Mockingbird Lane” actress, 50, said to her partner, who stood there in disbelief.
The pair was met with tons of love from their close friends in the comments sections of DeGeneres’ post.

“Best day ever!!! what an honor to be there for two of my BFF’s who I adore and who love each other so much! ❤️😍🙏🥰,” Jenner commented.

DeGeneres and de Rossi tied the knot in August 2008 in Los Angeles. At the time, an insider told Page Six that the couple only had 20 wedding guests at the intimate ceremony.
Last August, the comedian celebrated their 14th wedding anniversary by sharing a montage of some of her and de Rossi’s most unforgettable moments on her now-defunct daytime talk show.
“It’s good to be loved. It’s profound to be understood.” I love you, @portiaderossi. Happy 14! ❤️,” DeGeneres captioned the post.
Priscilla Presley was making $900,000 a year from Elvis Presley Enterprises despite having no stake in the company, according to a lawsuit.
When Priscilla’s daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, sued her former business manager, Barry Siegel, in 2018 for “negligently” mishandling her money, she noted in the lawsuit that Siegel had “allowed (and, in fact, lobbied)” her mother’s nearly seven – figure income.
Lisa’s lawyers added Priscilla was being paid “even though Lisa’s mother has no ownership in EPE (nor was she performing any sort of executive-level work to justify the salary).”

“Siegel failed to disclose these facts to Lisa and he did not negotiate the same salary benefit for Lisa,” the complaint, obtained by Page Six, stated.
Siegel disputed Lisa’s claims in the lawsuit against him, and it dragged on for another two years before being settled out of court.

However, the scathing document could yet work in Priscilla’s favor.
At its conclusion, it lists her as “co-trustee” of Lisa Marie’s fund while the “Lights Out” singer’s kids — Riley and Benjamin Keough — were listed as “adult children of the beneficiary,” who would benefit upon her death.
Priscilla has been back in the news this week after she filed in court to invalidate a 2016 amendment to Lisa Marie’s trust which struck her and Siegel’s names as Co-Trustees, claiming it was fraudulent due to a suspicious signature and a misspelling of her name.
It is unclear why Priscilla would need to administer any of the value of Lisa Marie’s estate when daughter Riley is 33 and able to make financial decisions herself. Ben died from suicide in 2020.

A source close to Lisa Marie, who died at age 54 on Jan. 12, previously claimed to Page Six that Priscilla fighting the trust was nothing more than a “money grab,” while Priscilla maintained she is simply trying to protect her family.
A rep for Priscilla didn’t immediately return Page Six’s request for comment.
Lisa’s 14-year-old twin daughters Finley and Harper are also thought to now be beneficiaries of the estate, which still owns Graceland, Elvis’ home in Memphis.
“Today would have been Lisa’s 55th birthday. My wish is to protect my three grandchildren and keep our family together,” the ex-wife of the late King of Rock and Roll said in a statement to us Wednesday.
“From the first moment I held Lisa in my arms, I’ve protected, loved and guided her. … Our hearts are broken, and I am having to learn to live without my only daughter.”
Eva Green has been left “humiliated” by the release of her private text messages.
The “Penny Dreadful” star has been embroiled in a court case over the collapse of the 2019 sci-fi thriller film “A Patriot” due to a lack of funding and a spectacular falling-out with financial backers, reports Yahoo! News.
In the legal skirmish, which is being held in Britain’s High Court, Green’s WhatsApp messages have been submitted as evidence. In the texts, she allegedly referred to crew members as “sh–ty peasants,” a producer as “the devil,” labeled the movie’s director “weak and stupid,” called the project a “B-sh–ty-movie” and even described herself as “Cruella.”

On Tuesday, the actress, 42, was grilled about one particular message in which she called the film a “f–king nightmare” and told an associate: “We had to get out.”
Green vehemently denied sabotaging production or abandoning it.
“I have a very direct way of saying things,” she reportedly said on the witness stand. “I was not expecting to have my WhatsApp messages exposed in court. It’s already very humiliating.”
Elsewhere in the messages, Green allegedly discussed the possibility of buying the rights to the script and making it with his own crew. She denied lying about her intention to “get out” of the film by comparing her comments to one made by her “Casino Royale” co-star Daniel Craig, who infamously said in 2015 that he would rather “break this glass and slash my wrists “than film another James Bond movie.
“There’s a famous example of Daniel Craig saying he would rather ‘slash my wrists’ than do another Bond movie,” she testified.
Green told the court: “Sometimes you say things you don’t mean. You hate someone, you say, ‘I’m going to kill this person.’ Are you going to kill this person? No. It’s a cry from the heart.
“There’s a famous example of Daniel Craig saying he would rather ‘slash my wrists’ than do another Bond movie,” she added.
“He did honor his contract, he did another Bond movie, he didn’t slash his wrists. Sometimes you say things under extreme pressure, and it just comes out.”
Green denied that she was copying her agent, Charles Collier, who had also quoted Craig’s line.

“I know this story very well because I know Daniel,” she retorted.
Earlier on the stand, Green denied she wanted production on the “chaotic” film to collapse so she would have a chance to seize control of it.
The French-born actress insisted she did not do anything to “make the film fail.”
“I feel they made it fail on their own, by their own incompetence. Nothing was ready. Nothing was in place. It was a charade,” Green said.

When questioned about a message in which she allegedly declared, “I CANNOT make this film with (financiers) Sherbourne. IMPOSSIBLE,” Green said, “These are emotional words, I felt trapped at the time, it didn’t make any sense that the film was going to happen. I just felt cornered.
“It doesn’t mean I wasn’t going to honor my contract,” she clarified. “If called to set, I would have done this movie, even though it would have been a disaster.”
“I have never broken a contract, I had to do it.”
Green is suing White Lantern and financiers SMC Specialty Finance LLC to recover a reported $1 million “pay or play” contract.
The companies are countersuing for “conspiracy, deceit and unlawful interference” and claim that Green deliberately undermined the production, causing it to fall apart so she could swoop in and buy the script for herself.
Jessica Simpson’s “teenage fantasy” came to life when she began hooking up with a “massive movie star” — only to find out he was taken.
The singer detailed her “sexy” yet “demeaning” connection with the unnamed actor in “Movie Star: They Always Say They’re Single,” a “short and true story” published Wednesday.
The “Dukes of Hazzard” alum, 42, was on a break from Nick Lachey when the “hot” mystery A-lister “eyed [her] up and down” at the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards.
“He was undressing me with his eyes,” Simpson told readers.
Although the “Blonde Ambition” star got the man’s number, she ultimately reconciled with Lachey, 49, and did not call.

However, the “Newlyweds” alums divorced in 2006, and Simpson subsequently shared a kiss with the unnamed movie star at the Beverly Hills Hotel. The smooch gave her a “warm rush all the way down my body.”
The mystery man told Simpson at the time that his relationship with his girlfriend was “completely over.”

He and Simpson went on to hang out in nightclubs, at her mutual friend’s house and even on a movie set.
Eventually, the fashion designer began to feel “like a call girl” who was only there “to have sex” with the celeb.
The actress is now married to Eric Johnson.jessicasimpson/Instagram
She recalled meeting him at a hotel via the building’s private entrance and walking up fire stairs to reach his room, which she later realized was meant to “hide me from his chick.”
Simpson ended things, writing, “I didn’t care if he was my teenage fantasy come to life, this was not a choice that same girl, my younger self, would be proud of.”
The pair have three children.jessicasimpson/Instagram
The fling was not mentioned in Simpson’s “Open Book” memoir, which came out in February 2020 and is currently being adapted into a scripted series.
Simpson’s book did, however, cover her other high-profile romances with singer John Mayer, stuntman Johnny Knoxville, athlete Tony Romo and more stars.
The actress has been married to NFL player Eric Johnson since 2014. The couple share daughters Maxwell, 10, and Birdie, 3, as well as son Ace, 9.
Tom Brady made his first red carpet appearance since he and ex-wife Gisele Bündchen divorced.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback, 45, attended Tuesday night’s Los Angeles premiere of “80 for Brady,” starring Jane Fonda, Sally Field, Rita Moreno and Lily Tomlin.

The star athlete seemed much more comfortable when the rest of his castmates, including a starstruck Fonda, posed by his side.

In his Instagram, he noted how the red carpet was just like the Super Bowl “but [with] more cameras!”
He even poked fun at this “awkwardness” by asking his Twitter fans what one should do with their “hands at a movie premiere” as he shared a video from the red carpet.
For the outing, which he seemingly attended on his own, he rocked a black leather jacket paired with a white sweater, black pants and black shoes.
Aside from the cast and Billy Porter walking the red carpet, Lisa Rinna made an appearance at the premiere with husband Harry Hamlin and daughter Delilah Hamlin tagging along.

The athlete’s night out comes nearly four months after his divorce from Bündchen, 42, was finalized. The former couple — who share son Benjamin, 13, and daughter Vivian, 10 — had been married for 13 years.

Brady’s surprising choice to unretire from the NFL reportedly cost him his marriage to Bundchen.
In September 2022, sources told Page Six the football player and supermodel were living apart after getting into an “epic fight” over his choice to go back.
“Gisele has always been the one with the kids,” a source exclusively told us at the time. “They had agreed he would retire to focus on the family, then he changed his mind.”

Bündchen addressed her “concerns” about Brady’s career in an interview with Elle magazine that same month. (Brady also shares his Jack with ex Bridget Moynahan.)
“This is a very violent sport, and I have my children and I would like him to be more present,” she told the publication, adding that she has “definitely had those conversations with [Brady] over and over again.”

The former Victoria’s Secret Angel is expected to share more about her split from Brady in a forthcoming Vanity Fair cover story interview, a source exclusively told Page Six on Tuesday.
A VF spokesperson told us the magazine doesn’t address editorial rumors, but one Condé Nast insider said, “I could see this as a cover to celebrate Earth Month in April, as that’s a subject close to Gisele’s heart. But it could also be a summer cover.”
Kaitlyn Bristowe’s friendship with Chris Harrison “went down the toilet” after she was hired to host “The Bachelorette.”
During Tuesday’s episode of the “Not Skinny But Not Fat” podcast, the former reality star claimed Harrison “ghosted” her after news broke that she and Tayshia Adams were going to co-host Season 17 of the hit ABC series.
She explained that, at first, she had signed on under the impression that she was there to “mentor” Katie Thurston, not to replace Harrison.
However, when “all these articles starting coming out saying, ‘Tayshia Adams and Kaitlyn Bristowe replacing Chris Harrison,’” that’s when the former “Bachelor” Nation host allegedly turned his back on her.
Bristowe said her relationship with Harrison crumbled after she took over “The Bachelorette.”

Bristowe claimed that she messaged Harrison “like 10 times” to explain that she “didn’t know what [her] role was” and didn’t want to replace him.
However, her pleas were met with silence, making the former “Bachelorette” “feel icky.”
“And that is so not like him to me. And I know it’s not about me. I just wanted him to know that I thought he was irreplaceable, and I didn’t want to step on toes,” she said.

Despite his odd behavior, Bristowe kept reaching out to Harrison but “he didn’t write back.”
“I was like, ‘OK, well now I’m panicking. Why didn’t you write me back?’” she reminded, asking herself if he “hated” her or if she was “being [too] emotional.”
“We were best friends and now he hates me,” she said.
It wasn’t until Bristowe, 37, saw Harrison, 51, at Wells Adams and Sarah Hyland’s wedding last year that the pair were able to finally chat.
“I walked up to him and was like, ‘I miss you,’” she recalled, to which Harrison shockingly replied, “Well, I’ve always been here.”
The comment took Bristowe by surprise as she allegedly quipped back, “No you haven’t! You haven’t responded to me in forever!”

Despite confessing that she “bawled her eyes out” about the situation, Bristowe noted that Harrison was “going through so much in his life” at the time.
Harrison was forced to say goodbye to Bachelor Nation in 2021 after 19 years as his host when he defended “racist” photos of contestant Rachael Kirkconnell at a plantation-themed party.
Following his departure, Bristowe and Taysha stepped in to mentor Thurston and later Michelle Young on their journeys to the altar. However, Jesse Palmer was ultimately named as Harrison’s permanent replacement as the host of “The Bachelor.”
Christina Haack gave fans a “quick health update” after announcing she had been diagnosed with mercury and lead poisoning.
The “Flip or Flop” alum revealed on her Instagram Story Tuesday that she recently underwent a series of invasive testing to figure out why she has been dealing with “some unexplained health stuff for years.”
“I’ve been on a mission to get to the bottom of what’s going on and I did an expensive and super extensive panel and I got all my results back,” Haack, 39, said.
The reality star went on to explain that the tests checked for “100 different types of molds, metals and bacteria” but her “highest level of toxicity came back as an abnormal amount of gut bacteria … like sibo and also parasites.”
Christina Haack revealed on Instagram that she found out she has parasites and “abnormal” gut bacteria. thechristinahall/Instagram
“So those are my biggest conditions and then after that, obviously, I have a little bit of heavy metals going on too,” she continued. “So I’m on a cleanse — and a parasite cleanse — but I heard it gets worse before it gets better. It’s pretty brutal but I’m hoping at the end I feel good.”
Haack made sure to clarify that she got all the lab work cleared though her doctor — similarly to the biofeedback tests she had done, which indicated she had lead and mercury poisoning.
The 39-year-old shared her results with her 1.8 million Instagram followers.

Despite the scary results, the “Christina on the Coast” used “herbs and IVs” to “detox” and says she can “definitely feel it working.”

Now that Haack may be on the road to recovery, she can focus on spending more time with her three children — Hudson, 3, Brayden, 7, and Taylor, 12 — after settling her bitter custody battle with ex Ant Anstead.
The twosome, who welcomed Hudson during their two-year marriage, agreed to “have joint legal and joint physical custody” in November 2022.

With the legal battle out of the way, Haack told People earlier this month that it “feels nice” to finally have a “settled” family unit with now-husband Josh Hall.
“We just have a true partnership, true teamwork. We have the same goals as far as everything we want for our future and our end game,” the HGTV star gushed.
Austin Butler had an instant connection with Lisa Marie Presley after being cast as her late father, Elvis Presley, in “Elvis.”
“I first met Lisa when we screened the film at Graceland,” the actor said on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” Monday of the 2022 biopic, for which he received an Oscar nomination last week.
“I’ve never had an experience where I met somebody and felt an immediate depth of relationship to them,” he recalled.
Butler, 31, described Lisa Marie as a closed-off person and shared how special it was that she had let him in.
“She was a person who didn’t really have anything to prove and wouldn’t open up to everybody, and she just opened up to me, and we got so close so fast,” he said.

The “Carrie Diaries” alum then recalled Lisa Marie showing him her dad’s slippers in the “Hound Dog” singer’s bedroom at his iconic Memphis estate.
“I get goosebumps,” he remembered. “That was after we screened the film, and his bedroom is a place that most people never get to see, and she said, ‘I want to show you something,’ and she took me up there.
“We just sat in his bedroom, and up there, he’s not Elvis, he was just dad, you know? So to hear those stories, I truly will treasure that forever.”

In the wake of Lisa Marie’s death on Jan. 12, Butler said that attending the 2023 Golden Globe Awards with her was a memory he would cherish forever.
“I’ll never forget that for the rest of my life,” he shared.
The “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” star became emotional during the interview as he shared his heartbreak for Lisa Marie’s mourning family members.

“It’s just devastating. It’s weird in moments like this because it’s so bittersweet,” he said of “Elvis” dominating awards season. “So much great stuff is happening … but I’m just devastated for her family and for her to not be here celebrating with us.”
In addition to his Oscar nomination, Butler is up for SAG and BAFTA awards for his portrayal of Elvis in the Baz Luhrmann-directed film. He already won a Golden Globe for the role.

During his acceptance speech, the former “Switched at Birth” star thanked Lisa Marie and her mom, Priscilla Presley, for being at the Globes to support him.
“Thank you guys. Thank you for opening your hearts, your memories, your home to me,” he said. “Lisa Marie, Priscilla, I love you forever.”
Lisa Marie seemed to be in good spirits at the awards show, but fans later noticed that she looked unsteady on the red carpet.
The actor has been nominated for an Oscar for his starring role in “Elvis.”
Just two days later, the “Lights Out” singer died after going into cardiac arrest. She was 54.
Butler mourned Lisa Marie in a touching statement shortly after the news broke, saying that his heart was shattered for his family.
“I am eternally grateful for the time I was lucky enough to be near her bright light and will forever cherish the quiet moments we shared,” he said at the time. “Her warmth, her love and her authenticity will always be remembered.”

Last week, Butler attended a public memorial service for Lisa Marie at Graceland with his girlfriend, Kaia Gerber, by his side.
Lisa Marie was buried in the Meditation Garden next to her son, Benjamin, who died by suicide in July 2020.
Elvis and his parents, Vernon Presley and Gladys Presley, are also buried at the home.
Lisa Marie is survived by her three daughters: actress Riley Keough, 33, and 14-year-old twins Finley Lockwood and Harper Lockwood.
Pamela Anderson understands if her ex-husband Tommy Lee’s current wife, Brittany Furlan, isn’t too fond of her newly released memoir.
“I’m sure it’s going to be annoying to his wife. I’d be annoyed,” the former Playboy Playmate, 55, admitted to WSJ. Magazine about “Love, Pamela,” which hit bookstores Tuesday alongside the outlet’s interview.
Anderson writes in her book that she knew very little about the Mötley Crüe drummer — including his last name and where he lived — when they eloped in Mexico in 1995.

Although they’d only known each other for a few days when they said “I do,” the “Baywatch” star remembers being “genuinely happy” and “lost in a sea of love.”
But according to Anderson, the honeymoon phase faded quickly. She goes on to describe a tumultuous marriage marked by anger, jealousy, physical abuse, an arrest, jail time, substance abuse, a suicide attempt, family feuds, lawsuits and a stolen sex tape.

Amid the chaos, the pair welcomed two sons — Brandon in 1996 and Dylan in 1997 — before divorcing in 1998.
The model-actress explains that her split from the musician was “the hardest, lowest, most difficult point of [her] life,” but she “had to protect [her] babies.”

Despite going on to have several more marriages, including one to Kid Rock, Anderson says her relationship with Lee “may have been the only time [she] was ever truly in love.”
As for the 60-year-old rocker, he married Furlan — a social media personality 24 years his junior — on Valentine’s Day 2019.

Josh Duhamel is defending Katherine Heigl against her “bad rap” in Hollywood, following claims she’s acted like a diva on sets.
“She’s awesome … she’s great,” the actor, who worked with Heigl in 2010’s “Life As We Know It” and 2011’s “New Years Eve,” said Sunday on Barstool Sports’ “Chicks in the Office” podcast.
“She probably said some things that she wishes she could’ve taken back, but my experience, on and off screen with her, was awesome.”
Duhamel, 50, added that he feels Heigl, 44, may have been mischaracterized due to a few isolated incidents.

“I think that’s probably what happened to Katie is that, you know, she had a couple bad moments and that’s what everybody wants to just – that’s her label now, and it’s not really fair,” the “Shotgun Wedding” star concluded.
Heigl has been accused of being “difficult” for criticalizing projects she had worked on.

After starring in Judd Apatow’s box office hit “Knocked Up,” the Washington, DC, born actress insinuated that the rom-com was sexist.
“It paints the women as shrews, as humorless and uptight, and it paints the men as lovable, goofy, fun-loving guys,” she told Vanity Fair in 2008.
“It exaggerated the characters, and I had a hard time with it, on some days. I’m playing such a bitch; why is she being such a killjoy? Why is this how you’re portraying women? Ninety-eight percent of the time it was an amazing experience, but it was hard for me to love the movie.”
That same year, Heigl withdrew her name from the 2008 Emmys list of TV contenders for her role as Izzie Stevens in “Grey’s Anatomy,” explaining to the LA Times at the time that she did “not feel that I was given material this season to warrant an Emmy nomination.”
The move was considered a slight to creator Shonda Rhimes.
In 2014, Heigl later expressed regret over some of her decisions.
“I’ve made mistakes and unwittingly or carelessly spoken or acted but I always try to make any wrong right,” the “Ugly Truth” star said in a Q&A at the time.
“That doesn’t mean I won’t stand up for myself by drawing boundaries and asking to be treated kindly and respectfully,” she continued, “but I don’t do that with any rude or unkind intentions just with the same strength and honestly I think every one of us is entitled to.”
Then in 2016, Heigl confessed to Howard Stern that she actually ended up having to go to therapy because of her bad reputation.
