In a resurfaced clip of Anne’s podcast, Better Together, with co-host Heather Duffy, the Volcano alum recalled warning Portia de Rossi against dating Ellen, whom she dated for several years prior!

Good thing Portia didn’t listen to Anne’s warning!!
Though it’s no surprise Anne was wary of anyone getting together with
