De Rossi denies IVF reports

Actress Portia de Rossi has denied reports she is planning to undergo fertility treatment in order to start a family with partner Ellen Degeneres.

The couple, who wed last year (Aug08), were allegedly desperate to have a biological child - with a U.S. magazine last week (18Feb09) claiming de Rossi was set to begin in vitro fertilisation (IVF) treatment.

But the Ally McBeal star has shot down the rumours.

She tells Access Hollywood, "There's a story around right now about me that could not be further from the truth. (The IVF story) was just completely made up. The baby thing comes around annually. I find once a year, you know, whether I deny it or not It doesn't make any difference."
