Portia De Rossi has come clean about suffering from anorexia while working on Ally McBeal. Portia starred as Nell on the show between 1998 and 2002 but hit her lowest point in 1999 when she weighed just 82lbs (just under 6 stone).

In 1999, de Rossi entered a serious partnership with singer-songwriter Francesca Gregorini. Two years into their relationship, paparazzi caught the pair embracing during a walk near their home, and the pictures hit the papers, making de Rossi's lesbianism an even more open secret. De Rossi did not comment on the photos, but neither did she deny her relationship with Gregorini. Instead, she proceeded with a kind of relief to live as a lesbian with a sort of "don't ask, don't tell" openness.

[D]e Rossi remained in the closet. In the tolerant atmosphere of the modeling world, she had felt free to identify as bisexual, but she felt certain that an open lesbian could not succeed as a film or television star. She had a brief marriage to documentarian and sound engineer Mel Metcalfe, after which she continued to date women, such as Guinevere Turner, the actor-filmmaker who produced the 1994 lesbian film Go Fish.
