And Ellen's ploy to get Chris to talk about his relationship worked — kind of!
"She's been a great beard for me now, for 10 years," Chris joked.
"She just pretends that she's your wife?" Ellen asked.
"Yeah, it's hard to believe," Chris said with a laugh.
Chris' interview with Ellen airs Thursday on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
