While fans of the Ellen DeGeneres Show might be thrilled to hear their favorite funny woman is planning to start a family, they ought not get their hopes up. Ellen DeGeneres and Portia DeRossi have chosen to remain childless, a decision the 53-year-old discusses in her third book, Seriously…I’m Kidding.

“People are constantly asking Portia and me if we are going to have children,” Ellen DeGeneres writes. “We thought about it. We love to be around children after they’ve been fed and bathed. But we ultimately decided that we don’t want children of our own. There is far too much glass in our house.”

“We have two dogs, Mabel and Wolf, and three cats at home, Charlie, George and Chairman. We have two cats on our farm, Tom and Little Sister, two horses, and two mini horses, Hannah and Tricky. We also have two cows, Holy and Madonna,” Ellen DeGeneres writes. “And those are only the animals we let sleep in our bed.”

The pair, pictured here in Toronto in August, wed in 2008 during the brief time gay marriage was legalized in the state of California.

1. how old is Portia?

I noticed the other day on Jay Leno that Ellen was showing some signs of age and I had no idea how old she is. Fifty three. That's a bit old to be carrying a baby anyhoo, right? I always think of her as forever young -- she's so cool.
