Ellen DeGeneres was recently seen sharing some heartbreaking news after announcing the death of her boyfriend at the age of 19.
The former talk show host from the US, who is now living in the UK, mentioned through a tragic tribute how her former talk show host, whom she called her ‘only boyfriend’, had died at 19. She took to her account on Instagram to share the news with her fans and remember how great a person Tayt Andersen was.
She mentioned him several times on her social media and invited him onto her show as well. He was said to be suffering from a congenital heart disease, and his family confirmed that he passed away from cancer on Friday morning at a young age.
Andersen was also a delight on the show and never failed to entertain the audience with Ellen by his side. She also laughed and said he was her only boyfriend after he once playfully referred to her as her girlfriend on the program.
‘We had a very special guest on the show several times, and his name is Tayt’- the 67-year-old star mentioned while fighting back tears in a heartbreaking video.
She found it hard to gather the courage to speak, but mentioned how special a human being he was and called him a person who brought joy and life, and laughter to every single room he walked into.
