However, when she realized that she was indeed gay, she loudly and proudly exclaimed it back in 2009. Prior to her announcement though, she was in a relationship with a general contractor named Nancy Locke back in 2005. Eight years later, the couple tied the knot. In fact, Baxter has been married four times in total.

Garry Kief & Barry Manilow

Barry Manilow will always be known as one of the greatest American singers and songwriters who ever lived. For five decades, he has created memorable hits. Though he got married to manager Garry Kief in 2014, and have been with him since 1978, Manilow used to be in a relationship with a woman – and so did Gary.

Gary was also married and had a daughter named Kristen who was born in 1976. Manilow and Kief made their relationship official in their Palm Springs estate via a wedding attended by friends and family.
