Ellen DeGeneres’ mother has a clear message for everyone wanting – and hoping – for the TV host and her wife Portia de Rossi to have children.

“Ellen has far too much class,” 88-year-old Betty DeGeneres told US Weekly at a recent event.

The cheeky statement comes four years after the 61-year-old confirmed that she and her wife-of-11-years, 48, had no intention of bringing children into the world.

“I love kids, but that’s such a big commitment,” the comedian told hosts of the Today Show in 2015. “It seems long-term. It seems like a commitment that you have to stick with. And I just don’t know if I can – it’s too risky.”
