Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi spend holidays in St Barts

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi enjoyed a romantic stroll along the beach together as they soaked up the sun together in St Barts on Monday.

Dressed in complimentary pale outfits – a cream dress for Portia de Rossi and a white shirt and trousers for Ellen DeGeneres – the smiling pair were arm in arm as they chatted and strolled.

They had earlier enjoyed a Christmas Eve lunch at the exclusive Eden Rock Restaurant on the island.

Ellen DeGeneres enjoyed a beer while Portia de Rossi sipped a glass of wine over their meal.

Then Ellen DeGeneres rolled up her trousers as they paddled in the surf.

She didn’t quite manage to stay dry, however, getting caught out by a wave.

The mishap amused Ellen DeGeneres, who looked younger than her 54 years as she laughed with Portia de Rossi, 39.

The previous night Ellen DeGeneres, showed off her showbiz connections as the couple bumped into supermodel Kimora Lee Simmons, 37, and her children Ming Lee, 12, Aoki Lee, 10, and three-year-old Kenzo Lee.

Posing for photos they laughed and joked together.

Ellen DeGeneres and former Portia de Rossi then continued their evening together, popping into Hermes to pick up some last minute stocking fillers.

The couple wed in 2008 and still seem as happy as ever.

They celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary earlier this year, with Ellen DeGeneres hiring a sky writer to mark the event by writing “four in the sky”.
