Ellen DeGeneres and Portia De Rossi were absent in a charity fund-raiser event Saving SPOT at Tiato in Santa Monica. According to Page Six, sources told them that the two cancelled their appearance "after having a huge fight in the car on the way to Sunday's event."

Reportedly, the couple was listed as the hosts of the said gathering and even have their photos present in the invitations.

"Ellen and Portia were supposed to be at the event at 5 p.m., but at 6:30 p.m., the media was still waiting for their arrival. Reporters were told they were on their way, until the head of the charity informed everyone at the end of the event that they weren't going to make it due to 'logistics.' "Ellen and Portia were delayed and were in the car on the way, when they had an epic fight. They ended up turning around and not going to the fund-raiser," the source said.

According to Page Six, Ellen and Portia "insisted" they had informed the charity that they won't be able to make it to the even and that their photos should not have been in the invitation.

"We were happy to lend our names as honorary chairs and the organization was always aware that we would be unable to attend. This is the first time we have seen our images attached to the invite. It was not approved and it is misleading," Ellen and Portia said in a statement to Page Six.

Ellen's attorney Marty Singer said that his client told him they "never agreed nor planned to attend the event. There was no fight that caused them not to attend."

Reportedly, the charity did not respond to the requests to comment.
