Ricky Martin and Jwan Yosef

It was already shocking for everyone when Ricky Martin came out as gay, but he once again made headlines when he confirmed his marriage to Jwan Yosef. The two dated for a couple of months until Ricky asked Jwan to tie the knot with him. According to the singer, he was pretty sure that Jwan was the one. Although the relationship took quite some time to develop, he believed that it was love at first sight.

Prior to their serious relationship, they shared that they often talk casually over the phone about life experiences — it was nothing romantic. Six months passed and their friendship grew into something special. Now, Ricky and Jwan are co-parenting twins Valentino and Matteo in their humble home that has a home security system for protection. They have also been active on social media posting about how happy they are. Their intention, of course, is to inspire other gay couples to live openly.
