Will Ellen DeGeneres and Portia De Rossi start a family in 2009?

Settled as No

Background: DeGeneres - who has said she is keen to live on a farm once her US talk show contract expires in 2010 - and her Aussie partner are gearing up to undergo fertility treatment to start a family, US gossip sites claim. De Rossi is expected to carry the child. It contradicts statements DeGeneres, now 51, made in 2007 when she said it would be "really selfish" not to adopt.

This question will settle as 'yes' if the couple announce a pregnancy, go through an adoption or have a child by any other means in 2009.

Settlement details:As reported by a major mainstream news source. This question will settle as 'yes' if the couple announce a pregnancy, go through an adoption or have a child by any other means in 2009.
