BD Wong — the sexy actor best known as Dr. Huang from Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Professor Hugo Strange in Gotham and Dr. Henry Wu in the Jurassic Park films —married Richard John Frederickson Schnorr, his partner of eight years in a Brooklyn ceremony.
A lot of Wong’s Twitter fans apparently didn’t realize the Asian-American actor is gay. And they’re not only celebrating his marriage but the fact that he appeared on last night’s American Horror Story: Apocalypse as a warlock who played piano for none other than witchy gay music icon Stevie Nicks.

Schnorr posted a shot from their special day along with other shots taken with Wong over the years.
How about we take this to the next level?

Schnorr’s Instagram account also has many shots of him flexing at the gym and dancing in skimpy swimsuits (we know you are not interested, but we couldn’t help get lost in the account for a few days).
Wong’s fan’s took to Twitter to congratulate the actor on his recent nuptials.
BD Wong just got married to his partner and now I want to cry! I love him so much.

#BDWong Congratulations to them both! I've always been a fan of him since Law & Order. He's part of the #AHSapocalypse series now. I've always praised this handsome actor for his great craft. @AHSApocalypse_

Handsome couple.

Who didn’t know BD was gay??? The talented man has been out for over 30 years going back to his days on Broadway in M. Butterfly. He was also in a long 10+ year relationship with his former partner, Richie Jackson and they share a child together.
How much a “fan” are these fans if they don’t know that Bradley Darryl Wong is gay??

lol I was thinking the same thing

Totally pissed off by this. I wanted to marry BD. Go ahead, crush my dreams. 🙂

Handsome couple. I love BD Wong on Mr. Robot. He was also great on Oz.

People didn’t know he was gay? My gaydar went off the very first time I saw him in law and order svu over a decade ago.

Congrats.

Every good wish to this handsome couple,.
BD had had a long-term relationship with talent agent Richie Jackson some years ago. In 2000, He and Richie had twin sons via a surrogate mom…terrible tragedy when one of the boys, – Boaz Dov, died 90 minutes after birth. Jackson Foo Wong Wong amicably co-parents his son, Jackson Foo Wong with his ex-partner Jackson and Jackson’s partner, Jordan Roth

They are adorable…. and AHS Apocalypse is godawful.

Congrats BD and hubby! And THANK YOU, BD for being one of the few openly gay actors since the 1980s. That has been a monumental act of bravery that has helped so many young gay men.

Congratulations to them and may they have a wonderful life together!

I hope you’ve all read his book from 2003, Following Foo: the Electronic Adventures of the Chestnut Man.
It’s the story of the twins that were born to him and his former partner, Richie Jackson, and it’s very moving.

Gee – I’m all for gender neutral terms so is it really appropriate for the column heading for the wedding of two gay MEN listed as “Wedding BELLEs?”
