Christine Marinoni and Cynthia Nixon

Cynthia Nixon and Christine Marinoni share the same passion for LGBTQ rights and education, so it’s not surprising that the two fell in love while they were both working with the Alliance for Quality Education back in 2001. Due to his friend being a victim of hate crimes involving LGBTQ,  Marinoni became more vocal about the issues surrounding the LGBTQ community. That explains why they hosted events to voice their concerns about LGBTQ discrimination.

2012 then became a big year for both of them as the pair finally decided to tie the knot three years after announcing their engagement at the support gay marriage rally held in New York City. In 2004, she finally came out of the closet, which indeed sent shockwaves to the Sex and the City actress’s fans. The journey to love has definitely been challenging for the two, so credits to them for making their relationship work.
