Ellen Pompeo gave a rare glimpse at her eldest daughter Stella as she reminisced about Monday’s Emmy Awards in Los Angeles — which she said was ‘the best night.’
The actress, 54, shares Stella, 14, as well as daughter Sienna May, nine, and son Eli Christopher, six, with her husband Chris Ivery, 55.
In one clip uploaded to Instagram Tuesday, Ellen and Stella are seen posing side-by-side just moments before leaving for the ceremony.

‘Thank you again, to everyone that made this happen yesterday! We had the best night,’ the Massachusetts native captioned.

On her Instagram Story, Ellen shared hilarious footage of Stella cracking up as she watched her mom lay uncomfortably inside their SUV so she wouldn’t rip her skirt.
Over top the clip she wrote: ‘Oh the glamour…’
In another fun video taken from Ellen’s POV in the glam chair, Stella is seen wearing a hoodie and sweatpants while cheering with her mom’s massive entourage.
Ellen is famously private when it comes to speaking about her children and family life.
She married Chris, a music producer, back in 2007.
They’re based in Malibu, California and their mid-century modern abode was featured in Architectural Digest in 2022.
In the cover story, Ellen touched on her children being mixed race and how necessary it is to have Black representation in the artwork that fills their home.
‘Obviously my children are Black and it’s really important for me to have lots of representation in the artwork,’ Ellen told the outlet.
‘Usually I really make an effort to have it be predominantly Black artists or have the subjects of it be Black people who have made such an impact on our history here in the United States.’
Ellen has mostly kept her children off of her social media, with the star last posting Stella in July 2022.

Ellen was among Monday night’s presenters at the 2024 Emmys.
But it was an extra special gig as she reunited with her former Grey’s Anatomy co-stars Katherine Heigl, 45, Chandra Wilson, 54, ustin Chambers, 53 and James Pickens Jr., 69.
Ellen played series lead Meredith Grey from 2005 until her exit as a series regular in 2023.
The reunion came 14 years after Heigl quit the show amid rumblings of an onset feud.
They united on Monday to mark the show’s 20th season, making it the longest-running prime time medical drama in TV history.
They also presented the Emmy for supporting actor in a limited or anthology series or movie.
Announcing the stars, host Anthony Anderson said: ‘With 39 Emmy nominations and multiple wins. From the series please welcome Ellen Pompeo, Justin Chambers, James Pickens Jr., five-time Emmy nominee Chandra Wilson and Emmy winner Katherine Heigl.
‘When the first episode of Grey’s Anatomy aired in March of 2005, I’m not sure if Shonda Rhimes knew that she had created a show that would have a lasting imprint on television and create lifelong friendships.
‘Over 400 episodes and counting, a tribute to everyone who has been a part of our family.

‘And yes, there have been changes over the years, but the one constant is the amazing fanbase.
‘You stayed with us through plane crashes, superstorms, earthquakes and a global pandemic, and as we start our 20th season, we are officially the longest-running prime time medical drama in TV history.
‘And that would not be possible without all of you, so to all our fans, and to all of you, thank you.
‘Now what? Oh right. And now here are the nominees for supporting actor in a limited or anthology series or movie’ with Paul Walter Hauser scooping the award for Black Bird.
Katherine told Extra of the reunion: ‘I haven’t seen my old friends in years, so this is really fun and exciting.
‘[James Picken Jr.]’s like the kindest, gentlest soul… so is Chandra, Ellen and Justin is gonna be really fun.’
