Ellen DeGeneres gave Hull Massachusetts couple $10,000 on Wednesday’s show

Kristen and Chris Edwards of Hull, Massachusetts received a briefcase filled with $10,000 on Wednesday’s Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Viewers watching last week’s show heard Ellen make a phone call to Kristen, who relayed details of the winter storm in Hull, telling her it was about 20 degrees, while Ellen comically replied the temperature was in the 70s in Burbank, California, where she was.

On Wednesday’s show (today) Ellen said last week’s call wasn’t random, explaining the Hull viewer had sent her an email outlining some of the young couple’s struggles.  Full story here!

WGB:  I live in Hull, Mass so I had to share.  I nearly shit when I heard Ellen say Hull, Mass since we are a very tiny little town south of Boston.
