Lance Bass and Michael Turchin

Their love story would never have been written had Lance not make the first move. Starting out as friends, Lance Bass and Michael Turchin met at a friend’s birthday celebration in Palm Springs, California. Although Michael felt that they could become more than just friends, he was intimidated by the fact that Lance was a well-known celebrity. The feeling was mutual with Lance — he was instantly attracted but chose to keep these feelings private.

Shortly, as time passed, they became really close friends, but Lance couldn’t resist anymore and went for a kiss. The two went from friends to lovers with a great foundation. But due to Lance’s schedule, he had to move back to New York City and have a long-distance relationship. Aside from Michael’s sense of humor, Lance loves how he can handle his busy lifestyle. And the same goes for Lance, who became a huge part of Michael’s career success and investments.
