Brian Hargrove (Partner of David Hyde Pierce)

Frasier star David Hyde Pierce, 49, had been living with Hargrove, 52, for many years before he casually referred to him as his “partner” in a 2007 interview. A call from AfterElton.com to Pierce’s publicist confirmed that, no, he didn’t mean “business partner.” Later that year, Pierce won the Tony for his role in the Broadway musical Curtains and thanked "my partner, Brian, because it's 24 years of listening to your damn notes — that's why I'm up here tonight."

There was probably truth to the sentiment. Hargrove is an accomplished television writer/director, having worked on Caroline in the City and Dave’s World and co-creating Titus.

Shaffer, an American graphic artist, married Cumming, the openly bisexual Scottish actor, in a civil ceremony near London in 2007 after dating two years. The couple now live in Manhattan and, according to Cumming, “would dearly like to adopt a child.”

Kenny Goss (Partner of George Michael)

It’s said about many boyfriends that “he has the patience of a saint.” But after Michael’s multiple arrests for drug possession and public sex, the words probably have probably never been more true of anyone than George Michael’s boyfriend, Kenny Goss.

The 50-year-old Texan native was actually wealthy before meeting Michael, one of the world’s richest celebrities, at the Beverly Hot Springs in 1996; a former gymnast and cheerleading coach, Goss made millions as a salesman of cheerleading equipment. Goss is now an art collector who runs the Goss-Michael Foundation, a Dallas gallery that showcases works by “established and emerging British artists.” The couple also have homes in London and Oxfordshire.

Brad Altman (husband of George Takei)

Fifty-four-year-old Brad Altman isn't just Star Trek star George Takei’s partner; he's also his full-time business manager. The two have been a couple for twenty-one years, but earlier this year they finally had a chance to make honest men of each other, getting married in California. Altman is an outspoken advocate of same-sex marriage rights, going so far as to make his and Takei's wedding public in hopes of swaying the hearts and minds of California, which faces a November vote on an initiative that would curtail same-sex marriage rights.
