Funnygal Rosie O’Donnell laughed off published reports that she and partner Kelli Carpenter are on the outs.

“We’re hearing that the togetherness of Rosie O’Donnell and Kelli Carpenter, the handsome blonde gal Rosie calls her wife, may not be so together anymore...whatever other difficulties such a breakup might cause, there is also a house full of adopted kids they’re raising,” wrote New York Post gossip columnist Cindy Adams.
