Ellen DeGeneres may have traded her loud life in LA for a quieter one in the United Kingdom. However, that doesn’t exempt her from remaining at the center of controversies in the US. Ellen DeGeneres has allegedly been been sued over a car crash accident.
The alleged car crash happened in October 2023
As per TMZ, DeGeneres has been served with a negligence lawsuit based on an alleged car accident. The accident is said to have taken place in October 2023, in the Santa Barbara county. The court documents reportedly state that the comedian failed to halt at a posted sign, crashing into a Tesla at a 4-way intersection.
The unnamed woman involved in this car accident had apparently stopped her car completely. After checking for all the signs, she advanced forward. However, as she moved, Ellen’s car allegedly collided with hers. She contends that as a result of that, she sustained several injuries, and is now pursuing compensation.
The lawsuit comes after a whirlwind of scandals that Ellen has been a part of. She faced severe backlash for encouraging a toxic work environment. Following that, she had a public altercation with Rosie O’Donnell. In addition, she once again found herself in hot water after claiming that she was kicked out of show business for being mean.
Once the host of a hugely popular talk show, Ellen has faced a series of incidents and revelations that have left her at a disadvantage.
