The talk show host returned for the 18th season of her show, "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" in September this year, amid allegations that the show cultivated a toxic workplace.

Although DeGeneres had tested positive for COVID, a source told Entertainment Tonight that many precautions had been made to limit the spread on the set of her show, including a limited number of audience members, and,

"Ellen has been trying to be as careful as possible when filming and the crew has been working spaced out, getting tested regularly for COVID-19."

The show has also experienced a decrease in the number of sponsors and celebrities wanting to make an appearance on the show, which means that the show's "12 Days of Christmas" has had to be condensed.

In a "Buzzfeed Report," the drop in sponsors was caused by a drop in ratings due to the allegations of a toxic workplace surrounding the show.

Despite the drop in ratings, DeGeneres and her partner had recently become owners of a gorgeous $49 Million on Four-Acre Montecito Estate which had been privately purchased from comedian, Dennis Miller.
