It is obvious that the members of this site are the biggest Ellen fans there ever could be. You guys know more about Ellen than Ellen knows about herself! Anyways, Ellen's mother, Betty is regularly mentioned on the show and is featured in various segments, but seldom does Ellen mention her father, Mr. Elliot DeGeneres. The only time I remember her mentioning him was in her wedding monologue. Oh, and once when an Idol contestant was a guest on her show and Ellen mentioned how her father adored the Idol contestant and how sad he was when she left. So, can somebody tell me where is he now and what exactly happened between him and Ellen when Ellen first came out? I heard that he remarried or something and his wife disapproved of homosexuality. If you can, please provide some more info about him, I don't want to sound like a creep but I want to know more about Ellen's family. Thanks
