Ellen DeGeneres, 65, shared a new peek inside her vast $70 million home where she recently hosted a second wedding with her wife, Portia de Rossi, 50.
The Ellen DeGeneres Show star filmed inside the living room of the Carpinteria property, which marked the most expensive home bought in Santa Barbara County, as she played with her two pet cats. The black and white cat sat on the dark wooden eight-seater table, while another hid underneath the cream leather chairs as they eyed up the toy Ellen pulled along the vintage cream and gray rug.

Add in the stone archways, floor-to-ceiling windows and tall ceilings, and the room wouldn't look out of place in an Italian chateau!
The Tuscan-style mansion boasts five bedrooms, eight bathrooms, and a separate one-bedroom, one-bathroom guest house. There's also a wine cellar, a movie theater, a pool, two spas, an outdoor shower, a fire pit, a fountain, an outdoor kitchen, and a private beach area.

Just a few months after purchasing the home, Portia turned her 50th birthday party into a surprise wedding vow renewal with Ellen, 15 years after first saying 'I do'. The video below shows Portia walking into the living room wearing a halterneck, backless gown with a tulle skirt as she walked through their closest friends and family to surprise her wife.

This is just one of Ellen and Portia's four properties, with the pair previously admitting they love flipping homes.

Ellen's first home was a Spanish bungalow in West Hollywood, which she fixed up and later sold. "That was when I realized that if you make some improvements, you can make money," she told the Los Angeles Times in 2015.
