VALENTINE'S DAY

Eight Gay-Porn Couples Who Found True Love Off-Screen—And A Few Who Didn’t


Valentine’s Day is just about here, which has us feeling both horny and romantic. So we decided to combine those feelings and review some of the gay-porn world’s most celebrated couples. Many were famous prior to hooking up—together, they made headlines and a few, like Benjamin Bradley and Roman Heart (above), even became legendary.

Sure, some have split—the course of true love never did run smooth—but in the case of porn couples their volcanic real-life chemistry is forever preserved for posterity.

They are the antidote, together and separately, to robotic hookups and gay-for-pay bores.

Brent Everett and Steve Pena

Everett is perhaps the most popular skin stud on the planet right now. Last month he was awarded Best Porn Star honors by Cybersocket and his fan base even extends to a sizable contingent of women. (Everything about Brent is “sizable,” come to think of it.) His husband-manager and fellow hottie, Steve Pena, accompanies Brent around the world for meet-and-greets, strip shows—such as a recent New Years’ Eve gig ringing at Splash bar in New York—and more. (They married several years ago in San Diego, back when California had legal same-sex marriages.)

Pena’s not a full-fledged porn star—yet—but hardcore shots of him from BrentEverett.com (link NSFW) show he’s more than just the cameraman.

Samuel Colt and Chris Porter

Colt is tough, rugged and muscular; Porter is lean, inked and sensual. Together, they’re perhaps gay porn’s reigning power couple. They share a deep appreciation and virtually unquenchable desire for kinky, filthy sex play. Their exhibitionism bubbles up even when their onscreen sexploits are strictly vanilla. Samuel is a former exclusive for Mustang Studios and has filmed for a wide variety of companies while Chris is currently an exclusive for Randy Blue.

The hotties recently discussed emotional versus sexual monogamy with Out and, this month, the guys packed up and moved to Greece. (Maybe not the best time, fellas.) More adorable trivia: Last year Colt and Porter adopted two miniature dachshund puppies and named them Bacon and Eggs. Aww…

Ivan and Kennedy Carter

Ginger Brit Kennedy Carter is currently an exclusive for CockyBoys: A lean, inked-up stud with an air of affability, he’s a fan-favorite stud with a large, vocal Twitter harem that greedily devours every detail of his sexploits. Carter’s steamy romps with  boyfriend Ivan, a striking hunk of Latin beef, led to the demand they film together onscreen. Ask and ye shall receive! The lovers recently shot a scorching-hot flip-flop scene they insist will be a one-time-only event.

Benjamin Bradley and Roman Heart

Roman Heart is a longtime Falcon Studios exclusive with feline good looks, a smooth physique and world-class ass. Benjamin Bradley is a ripped stud with a collegiate appeal enough erotic mojo to excite a marble statue. Together, they were an incendiary real-life couple. Bradley followed Heart into the biz more than a decade ago, but the two rarely filmed together. Sadly, one of all-male adult’s most popular and enduring couples, BradHeart finally dissolved last year right after actively promoting a joint paysite. Today they still occasionally steam up the screen but, alas, only separately.

Colton Ford and Blake Harper

Brawny and hirsute studs Colton Ford and Blake Harper fucked their way through the porn industry in the early 2000s. Harper had already been part of a super-couple, opposite rugged top Jason Branch, but his relationship with Colton catapulted them both onto the all-male A-list.

Before they both left the industry, Ford and Harper won awards, modeled and made personal appearances around the country.  The 2003 documentary Naked Fame chronicles their relationship and Colton’s attempts to leave porn behind for a career in music and acting. The men have since split, but fans still clamor  for them to reunite onscreen.

Damien Crosse and Francesco D’Macho

Two of all-male adult’s most handsome and successful stars, Euro-studs Damien Crosse and Francesco D’Macho were both at the top of their game when they formalized their sizzling hot relationship in a commitment ceremony a few years back and went into business together under the banner of Stag Homme Studios.

They were gay porn’s power couple for a time and although the romance ran its course, both hunks continue to work together. Stag Homme specializes in spectacularly filthy fetish flicks but the guys aren’t afraid to show a little tenderness: In 2009, they filmed Porn Stars in Love to showcase the romantic side of the adult industry. Sadly, like Crosse and D’Macho, most of the couples who appeared together in the film have parted ways. But the film still sells well today due in large part to the genuine chemistry it depicts.

Kevin Williams and Lane Fuller

Hall-of-famer Kevin Williams was a genuine erotic superstar when he hooked up with a rising stud named Lane Fuller back in the 1990s. For a large chunk of the decade they were among all-male adult cinema’s blazing power duos and fans followed their every move. Their wholesome good looks belied some major-league exhibitionism that could not be contained. And both are among the small handful of men who shot to stardom primarily as a bottom. So how did they manage to satisfy their primal urges when both preferred to be fucked rather than the other way ‘round? Those stories fuel the Kevin-and-Lane legend to this day.

Leo Ford and Lance

Blond demigod Leo Ford and the singly named Lance were among porn’s first A-list romantic couples: Clean-cut and freshly scrubbed, they glowed with an almost wholesome sex appeal. Separately, their blue movies were smash hits—but when they paired up in in 1983’s Leo & Lance, it was explosive (in more ways than one). Sadly both left us far too soon, within weeks of each other in 1991: Lance from HIV complications, Ford from injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident. But their onscreen chemistry endures.

Bad Romance

Some off-screen duos were better off not getting together: Aden and Jordan Jaric, Steven Daigle and Trent Locke, Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes and Spencer Reed and Phillip Aubrey  all filmed and fucked together, played and partied together and chronicled their romantic lives via tweets, Facebook updates and blog postings. Hell, Aden and Jordan even adopted the same surname and vowed they would only film together. Unfortunately, all these relationships ended with arguments, violence and arrests.

The various parties went their separate ways and have moved on to new relationships. Cuadra (above left) and Kerekes (above right), however, ended up in jail as convicted murderers. The real-life lovers were found guilty in the 2007 murder of Cobra Video founder Bryan Kocis. Both are serving out life sentences, with Cuadra’s appeal still working its way through the court system.
