One of her better decisions! Ellen DeGeneres walks hand-in-hand with wife Portia after seven years of marriage
Forget the seven-year-itch, it seems Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia De Rossi are as happy as ever.
Having celebrated their seventh anniversary last month, the grinning pair walked hand-in-hand through New York on Thursday.
The outing came days after Ellen described her spell as a judge on American Idol as one of her 'worst decisions' - not something that could be said about tying the knot with Portia.

What seven-year-itch? Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia De Rossi stroll in New York on Thursday
For their walk Ellen was dressed in slim-fitting grey trousers with a buttoned blue shirt and straw fedora. Her outfit was simply accessorised with laced grey shoes and an oversized watch.
The 57-year-old wore minimal make-up, keeping her eyes hidden under a pair of shades.
Meanwhile Arrested Development's Portia was typically feminine in a layered sheer skirt, black sheer blouse worn over a vest, and fringed open-toe booties and bag.
The couple tied the knot back in 2008, after dating for four years.
Speaking on shock jock Howard Stern's radio show this week, Ellen explained that she and Portia are secretly delighted about reports their marriage is on the rocks.

Ellen said: 'We're kind of flattered, because for awhile no one cared about us and we thought 'oh, lesbians aren't worthy of tabloid stories.
'So now we're kind of flattered that they even care about us.'
Talking about her decision to replace Paula Abdul on American Idol back in 2009, she told Stern: 'That's one of the worst decisions I've made.'
Back in the news: Ellen joked this week that she was pleased people were interested in her marriage - as it proved lesbians were newsworthy
And the daytime chat doyenne confessed it was her own love of the programme that made her want to appear on it, before her decision blew up in her face.
'As a fan of the shows, it doesn't matter that I sing or I know anything about pitch or anything, I'm like everybody else at home. It's American Idol.
'So I thought I'm gonna represent those people at home that have opinions… but then I just thought, like Howard says, I can't break this person's heart. Let somebody else do that.'

It was the most emotionally destructive and difficult thing that I've ever had to deal with professionally. It was heartbreaking."\nPreviously committing to the film Crimson Peak directed by Guillermo del Toro, Hunnam gives insight into his thought process saying, "I'd given Guillermo my word, over a year before, that I was going to do this film. People were saying, 'Are you crazy? Guillermo still has got four months to recast, it's the fourth lead, you can go and do this [instead].' I said, 'I can't. He's my friend, I've done a film with him, I gave him my word.' I'm pretty mercurial and a very difficult, longwinded decision-maker at the best of times. It was deeply unpleasant and challenging emotionally. I really, really pride myself on being a professional and a man of keeping my word.
