I can't imagine this happening in LA but I'm glad it happened in Boston where I hope loathsome former Gov. Mitt Romney is crying in his cornflakes: Popular newsanchor Randy Price and his long-time partner, Mark Steffen, will tie the knot on the steps of the State House today - one day after a measure to ban gay marriage advanced on Beacon Hill. They have already been together 30 years.
“Our timing couldn’t be better,� Price told the newspaper "Track" as he walked to Boston City Hall yesterday to file the paperwork. “But actually it’s pure coincidence since (today) is our 30th anniversary.� Price said he and Mark, who met on the Left Coast during one of Randy’s anchor stints, wanted to swap vows on the capitol steps for “symbolic reasons.�
“We’re certainly not defiant people, but we believe that we should have the right to marry like anyone else" he said. "Right now, it’s right for us. And we’ve got as good a track record with vows and commitment as anyone else.�
His station is certainly supportive, posting this on the web site today: 7News wants to congratulate an important part of our team. Randy Price got married today. Price and his longtime partner, Mark Steffen said, "I do" Wednesday in a simple ceremony in Boston. They've been together for 30 years.
