He tweeted: "It PASSED! Marriage equality in NY!! Yes!! Progress!! Thank you everyone who worked so hard on this!! A historic night!
"David and I did propose to each other, but over five years ago. We've been wearing engagement rings for ages, waiting for an available date. (sic)"

"I'd sure love to get married. Please, NY Senate, vote in favor of marriage equality today. My family would really appreciate it."
