12 Gay Celeb Couples That Are Cute AF

In recent years, it seems like a lot of celebrities are being more open about their preference in intimate relationships. Several stars have also come out of the closet, and we salute them! Although we like to imagine that we live in a judgement free place, it can still be difficult for gay people to publicly come out. There are likely quite a few famous people that still aren't comfortable being openly gay.

Some celebs have been brave enough to be themselves despite the haters and fear of public backlash. These gay celeb couples are helping the world see that love is love, no matter what your personal orientation is! Most of these couples have been together for many years and some even have adorable families. They look amazing together and seem like they are truly happy - relationship goals for sure.

Here are 15 gay celeb couples that we can't get enough of:

12 Stella Maxwell and Kristen Stewart

Kristen Stewart and Stella Maxwell are a pretty new couple, and we are hoping they make it. Kristen was famously dating her Twilight co-star Robert Pattinson, and then even had an affair with her Snow White and the Huntsman director before coming out as someone who swings both ways. Since then, she has been linked to a few women, including film producer Alicia Cargile and singer St. Vincent. Kristen and Stella reportedly got together in December, and have been inseparable ever since. Kristen has supported her model girlfriend at her shows, and the two of them happen to have pretty similar styles. They are both often seen sporting the ripped jeans and t-shirt or crop top look. They even kept it casual on Valentine's Day and stuck to wearing denim and sneakers for a lunch date. No matter what they are wearing, the beautiful actress and Victoria's Secret Angel look amazing together.

11 Matt Dallas and Blue Hamilton

Actor Matt Dallas and musician Blue Hamilton are definitely a good looking couple. You might remember Matt from the show Kyle XY - yes, that's the one where he played a boy who had no belly button. The pair dated for six years before tying the knot two years ago. They went to city hall a week after the Supreme Court legalized gay marriage and made it official. Since then, the couple adopted a son named Crow, and their family photos are so cute! In a People magazine interview, Blue said that they finally had the family of their dreams. The couple started a YouTube channel where they share their fatherhood and married life adventures. In a video called 'Things Husbands Do', they hilarious address gay couple issues, like accidentally wearing the same outfit as your spouse and sharing grooming tools. We'd love to see their family grow in the future.

10 George Takei and Brad Altman

George Takei and Brad Altman are one of Hollywood's longest lasting couples. George was a huge star in the 80s and was known for playing Mr. Sulu on Star Trek. Although he never publicly came out as being gay back then, it was not exactly a secret either. He was an active participant in LGBT organizations, and wound up meeting Brad at a gay running club. He was immediately drawn to Brad because of his good looks and athletic ability, so he asked him to help him train for an upcoming race. The pair has been together since, but kept their relationship private until 2005, when George decided to publicly come out as gay. After 18 years of dating, the couple decided to get married in 2008. George's Star Trek co-stars Walter Koenig and Nichelle Nichols were the best man and maid of honor at the ceremony. Wow what a cute story!

9 Cynthia Nixon and Christine Marinoni

Sex and the City star Cynthia Nixon had already put herself out there quite a bit as an actress, but she was reluctant to address rumors about her personal orientation when they first came out. A publicist had advised her to keep her relationship with a woman, educational activist Christine Marinoni, a secret. After a while, Cynthia felt uncomfortable keeping such a big secret, and decided to get a new, gay publicist who helped her confirm that the rumors about her being gay were true. Cynthia had been married to a man, and believes that things aren't so black and white when it comes to who you're attracted to. She admits that she had never been attracted to a woman before Christine, but that it's possible that she always liked bot genders. After over a decade of dating, the couple decided to get married in 2016. They have one son together, and also co-raise Cynthia's two children from her previous marriage.

8 Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Justin Mikita

Jesse Tyler Ferguson plays one half of our favorite television gay couple on Modern Family, and we're happy to report that his real life relationship with Justin Mikita is just as cute. Jesse met Justin, a lawyer at the time, at the gym, although he admits he often makes up a more interesting story when people ask him how they met. After a few years of dating, the couple decided to get married in New York, and of course there were a few cast members from Modern Family in attendance. Instead of wedding gifts, the couple requested donations to Tie the Knot, which helps same gender couples fight for equal rights in their states. Jesse and Justin started the tie company/charity organization themselves. The pair is still happily married and have said they would like to have children someday. You can check them out on Instagram if you want to see some pretty adorable pictures of the couple.

7 Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi

Ellen DeGeneres has been an amazing activist for gay rights ever since she came out in 1997. Of course, she came out in style, choosing to acknowledge that she was gay on her sitcom, despite many television executives recommending that she keep it a secret. Her show was the first to have a lead character come out as gay. A few years later, Ellen met actress Portia De Rossi through mutual friends. Surprisingly, they weren't immediately attracted to each other. It wasn't until 2004 when they decided to date. They didn't keep their relationship a secret, and they were often together on red carpets. Ellen let her studio audience know that they were engaged in 2008, and three months later, they tied the knot. The ceremony was very intimate - they only had 19 guests. The couple doesn't plan on having any children, although we're sure the couple would make great parents if they ever decide to be.

6 Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka

Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka are a beloved Hollywood couple. The two first met back when Neil was in his mid-twenties. At the time, Neil thought he was going to be single forever, and was immediately drawn to David, who was introduced to him by a friend. Unfortunately, David was seeing someone then, so they went their separate ways. After a few more casual encounters, the two decided to start hanging out. It became clear that they would be more than just friends, and David ended up breaking things off with his boyfriend to go out with Neil. The two have been inseparable ever since. In 2010, they became parents to twins Gideon and Harper. In case you're wondering, the kids call David 'Daddy' and Neil “Papa'. They got married in 2014 after nearly 10 years of dating. Fun fact, David and Neil are the same height, shoe size, and usually the same weight. They are also both Geminis.

5 Ellen Page and Samantha Thomas

Ellen Page was only 20 when she captured our hearts in Juno. Since then she's gone on to star in several indie films. She took a few fans by surprise when in 2014, she came out as gay at a LGBT youth conference. In her emotional speech, she said she was tired of lying by omission, and had suffered for years because she was afraid to come out. That same year, Ellen started dating artist and surfer Samantha Thomas. The two seem like a perfect pair - they support each other at events and often share pictures of their daily adventures on Instagram. In 2015 Ellen went on the Ellen DeGeneres show and discussed her relationship with Samantha, who was in the audience. The actress shared that Samantha has been teaching her how to surf and that she is definitely in love. We're expecting wedding bells to be ringing for them pretty soon.

4 Vincent Rodriguez III and Gregory Wright

Vincent Rodriguez III may be Rebecca's obsession on Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, but he's definitely gained some real life super fans from the show as well. The actor was relatively unknown before getting the lead role, and many people were surprised to find out that Vincent is gay. He married his partner, Gregory Wright, in 2015. Although Vincent does keep details of his personal life private, he did share an adorable picture of the pair celebrating their one year wedding anniversary in Disneyland. The actor popped the question on the California Screamin' ride, so they felt like going back to the scene of the proposal would be a great way to celebrate. Gregory is often by Vincent's side on red carpets, and they look very much in love. Vincent has been an inspiration to other gay Filipino Americans. He is proud of who is, and helps encourage others to be their true selves.

3 Tig Notaro and Stephanie Allynne

Comedian Tig Notaro and her wife, Stephanie Allynne have a great love story. Tig had just lost her mother, and had been diagnosed with breast cancer when their relationship had started to develop. Stephanie was 29 and Tig was 42 when they became friends, but it was clear that their friendship was evolving into something deeper. Stephanie had always identified as straight, so she was a bit caught off guard when she realized she was in love with Tig. While Tig was going through really hard times with her diagnosis, Stephanie was there for her. The two decided to tie the knot in 2015. Soon after, they welcomed twin boys, Max and Finn through a surrogate. Before getting married, the couple worked on a documentary together called Tig which explores their relationship. They open up about life with cancer, how comedy can be healing, and trying to start a family as a gay couple.

2 Lance Bass and Michael Turchin

In the 90s and early 2000s, it wasn't uncommon for girls to fantasize about dating Lance Bass. It wasn't until much later that we found out that he's gay. Lance came out in People magazine in 2006 after dozens of media outlets had shared pictures of him at gay bars. Although he had kept his orientation a secret for years, he said he felt relieved to come out. In 2011, Lance met painter Michael Turchin. They started off as friends, but only because they were both too afraid to admit that they had romantic feelings for each other. They got engaged in 2013, and got married a year later. Their wedding was filmed for a special called Lance Loves Michael: The Lance Bass Wedding that aired on E!. The N'SYNC boys were in attendance - except for Justin Timberlake who was on tour. Their wedding was the first real life gay marriage to be shown on cable television.

1 Jillian Michaels and Heidi Rhoades

Jillian Michaels may be a super tough fitness trainer, but we're pretty sure she's a big softie when it comes to her partner, Heidi Rhoades. Jillian initially met Heidi through mutual friends, but they wound up running into each other in New York City and decided to go for dinner. The couple has been together for years since then, and got engaged in 2016. Before getting engaged, Heidi and Jillian were already living together with their two children. Heidi gave birth to a son, Phoenix, just days before they were able to bring home their adopted daughter, Lukensia. So, what do they do for fun with two young children? Play board games, of course! The couple had a short lived reality television show called Just Jillian which chronicled their family life on E!. Although Jillian was used to being on TV, Heidi didn't care for it and prefers to be out of the spotlight.
