Recently, in an interview with the TV entertainment magazine "Extra", the principled and vocal musical artist Melissa Etheridge spoke about plans she has with her long time partner, actress Tammy Lynn Michaels, for an official wedding ceremony.
Following the passage of the California Domestic Partner Rights and Responsibilities Act in 2003, the couple already tied the knot in a commitment ceremony but, owing to the sanctioning of same-sex marriage in California in May this year, the couple aims to now have their partnership fully recognized under the law.
Etheridge and Michaels have four children. In 2006, Michaels gave birth to twins conceived by the couple via sperm donor and Etheridge's two children from her previous relationship with Julie Cypher.
The date for the wedding has not been publicly released, but considering the possibility that the legalization of same-sex marriages may once again be overturned in November's election, many speculate that the couple will wed before then.
This announcement follows the recent wedding of comedian Ellen DeGeneres and actress Portia de Rossi, making it likely that Etheridge and Michaels will be the second celebrity lesbian couple to exchange nuptials. All of us at Tokyo Wrestling wish them the best in wedded bliss!
