Vance also works in the entertainment industry.

He was a writer on her show Ellen between 1996 and 1997. And he has served as a producer and writer for films like The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, Crazy, Stupid, Love and Bull Durham.

In addition, he served as the 'co-president of Steve Carell's Carousel Productions at Warner Bros. for six years,' according to The Sun.

Vance seems to have always been close to Ellen.

In 2020 he defended the embattled star when she was facing an investigation over allegations of racism, bullying, as well as fostering a 'toxic environment' behind the scenes of her hit talk show.

Vance said that Ellen was being 'viciously attacked' amid her toxic workplace scandal, which he decried as being 'all bulls***.'

'If you think Ellen would knowingly allow bullying or racism on her show, you don't know my sister,' Vance said in a statement via Twitter.

The actor and musician added: 'She has been and continues to be a bright light in a dark world. She's one of the kindest, most generous people you'll ever meet. And one of the funniest.'

Meanwhile, Vance made further comments on his official Facebook account, saying that Ellen was being 'viciously attacked' and that the accusations she is facing are 'all bulls***.'

'Ok, I need to say something. My sister is being viciously attacked. And let me assure you - it is all bulls -- ,' Vance wrote in his Facebook post.

'I put up a simple statement yesterday that said 'I stand by Ellen.' Only a handful of my Facebook 'friends' responded to it. If you don't support Ellen, then you don't support me, so please unfriend me.'

Vance added: 'I'm sick and tired of my sister being attacked. She always has - and always will - stand against bullying of any kind. She's a smart, strong woman who has made a positive difference in the world. And to my friends who did respond with support for Ellen and my family, thank you so much. It means a lot.'

This comes after news the power couple are selling their home in the UK just a year after they bought it because they needed more space

This comes after news the power couple are selling their home in the UK just a year after they bought it because they needed more space.

The pair moved to Britain in 2024 and snapped up a 43-acre estate in the Cotswolds for £20 million, but they have now put the property on the market for £22.5 million because they needed to move to a bigger house to accommodate Portia's horses which they have flown over from the US.

Ellen explained the decision in a statement given to the Wall Street Journal via realtors Sotheby's: 'When we decided to live here full time, we knew that Portia couldn't live without her horses.

'We needed a home that had a horse facility and pastures for them.'

The couple are believed to have already moved to another property with enough space for the horses while they wait for the six-bedroomed home to sell.

The house in Oxfordshire boasts a two-bedroomed guest house as well as a swimming pool, gym and a 'party barn' complete with its own pub.

The publication reports the couple spent four and a half months renovating the property and only lived there for around four weeks before moving out.
