The home of talk show host Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, actor Portia de Rossi, was burglarized earlier this month. According to Fox News, the Santa Barbara County Sherriff’s Office confirmed the news in a press release on Thursday stating that the incident took place at DeGeneres’ Montecito home on July 4.
The release states, “The residence appears to have been targeted due to the victim’s celebrity status. The exact description of the items that were taken is not available for release, but they are described as high-value jewellery and watches.”
An “extensive” investigation is being conducted by “sheriff’s detectives and forensics technicians,” authorities said. (ANI)
