Mark Bradshaw & Ben
Ben Whishaw is an English actor who prefers privacy in his life. Though this may be ironic considering that he is an actor, and an incredibly talented actor, at that, it seems impossible to keep his wish fulfilled specially when he publicly announced a detail about the relationship he was in.

It was 2012 when Ben Whishaw couldn’t help himself but exclaim that he and Mark Bradshaw, a composer from Australia, are in a relationship. Plus, it was not just a relationship, the two were in a civil partnership. And they are still going strong until this very day.

Brian Hargrove & David Hyde Pierce
He might be one of the most iconic brothers in the history of TV. David Hyde Pierce was Dr. Miles Crane in the long-running sitcom Frasier. It was three years after Frasier ended that Pierce publicly announced he was gay. His publicist later confirmed that he was in a relationship with Brian Hargrove – a director, producer and television writer.

Pierce publicly acknowledged Hargrove when he accepted his Tony Award for the musical Curtains. The two have been together for 24 years but only married in 2008 – days prior to the adoption of Proposition 8 (a law that banned same-sex marriage).
