While most of Hollywood seems to be racing towards having babies and adopting children and denying pregnancy rumors, Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia de Rossi haven’t caught the baby bug, and might never.

“No, I don’t think we’re going to have kids,” Ellen tells AOL’s Inside/TV when asked if they were going to be moms. ” We have animals, and we love them. They don’t talk back, and they don’t explore their vocal chords out in public.”

In addition, the newlyweds do have children in their life already, as Ellen explains they’re brand new aunts.

“[Portia's] brother and his wife just had a baby girl who’s a month old now, and it’s fun to be a part of that. But no, I think, you know, we definitely thought about it. And it’s something I think most people, as a relationship goes on, explore. But it’s just a huge responsibility, and I don’t know that that’s something we want to take on. We’re very happily married without children.”
