LOS ANGELES, July 7 (UPI) -- Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi parted ways with their 13,511-square-foot Los Angeles home after Napster co-founder Sean Parker made them an offer they couldn't refuse.

TMZ reports DeGeneres sold the 6-bedroom, 9 1/2-bathroom house to Parker for $55 million last week. That is $15 million more than the couple paid for the property in January.
