Rosie O’Donnell’s brother Daniel is a member of the New York State Assembly, representing New York City’s Upper West Side since 2002. Daniel, a Democrat who lives with his partner John Banta, has helped lead the fight for same-sex marriage in New York State.

In 1997, Daniel introduced Rosie to her future wife, Kelli Carpenter-O’Donnell. Recently, he was interviewed by New York governor David Patterson as a possible replacement for Hillary Clinton in the U.S. Senate.

While promoting her latest movie, Bride Wars, Hathaway told Modern Bride her favorite “wedding” moment: when her older brother Michael married his partner Josh.

"At one point, he and his husband were standing up there, and my mom got up to sing," Hathaway said. "She was just beaming straight love into them, and everyone felt it, and it was just this really beautiful moment. When Mike and Josh booked the place, it was before daylight savings time, and the sun was pretty high up in the sky. Now it was at eye level, and it was blinding! Burn-your-retina bright!”
