After a very long engagement, Tom Daley and Dustin Lance Black finally said “I do” over the weekend.
The guys exchanged vows at Bovey Castle Hotel in Dartmoor National Park in Devon before 120 of their closest friends and family members on Saturday.
According to Mirror Online, the grooms had their personalities “stamped on every detail” of the day, including a multi-tiered wedding cake that Daley made himself. (We had no idea he was a baker!)
A local source told the Plymouth Herald, “It was a beautiful ceremony, their vows were so brilliant and heartfelt.
How about we take this to the next level?

After the ceremony, Tom’s brother Will posted the following message on Twitter:

Ahhhh.. he waited for Tom to grow up a little bit to tie the knot. I’m sure it would be embarrassing to marry a teenager after all.

Usually I scoff at things like that..
But it did warm my heart. Must be those views of Dartmoor. I bet it rained.

I know this is a completely selfish, random and evil thing to say, but why can’t we have some “cool” guys who are fully self-embracing famous gay men?
Aside from the slightly gross factor of secretly dating a famous 18 year old when you have all the options in the world, I can’t really scoff at two men who have decided to legitimately commit themselves to each other.

Two things that make Dustin the envy of many of his peers. 1. He landed himself a handsome teenager. 2. he got himself an Olympian.
The last one had Brian Singer report-ably green with envy so he went out and got one himself. Chris Mears.

At least DLB is a man who is comfortable with his orientation and wants to love and commit himself to a man. As opposed to Singer, who is an abuser, a fake bi who used marrying a woman to cover up his predatory and manipulative ways and to have a baby with, and who has had unfortunate cosmetic surgery. They both are lacking in the talent department though.
Also, that article was likely BS. Just Singer being a creeper as usual.

I’ve met him once before. Conceited asshole is a good description of him. Singers like most pediphiles. They too don’t identify with being gay.
Donston
I don’t know about Singer being a pedo. There’s been no rumors of him abusing kids. He is, however, definitely a predator and perhaps one of those people whose sexual behavior is driven by megalomania and obsession with “feeling different energies”. And yes, those types of men rarely see themselves as homosexual, even if they are, because they are obsessed with receiving sexual and/or romantic attention from many different sources to satisfy their egos and perversions.
Donston
And Hollywood is full of those types of guys along with your standard closet cases.

I really don’t care much about this couple but congrats to them and I hope they have many years of happiness. Many people were very skeptical but they are still together and seem very happy. Bovey Castle is gorgeous!!! One of my friends got married there and they have the cutest little cottages and the hotel is spectacular. Very old school English. The entire grounds and that area is just gorgeous. I love the English countryside so good pick on that venue boys.

awwww and then the bitter side of me hits and I give it as long as that purple suit is on trend, yes I really am that jaded

But, but, Daley, you promised yourself to me!

The comments seem to overlook that Daley sought DLB when they first met. Daley made his way across the room to say hello.
If he hadn’t taken that initiative……….
Take a lesson girls.
Donston
I think most are aware of this. But I don’t really see your point. He was a horny and frustrated teenager with daddy issues. They seek out sex with older people all the time. DLB was mature and worldly enough and had enough options to turn down a famous 18-year-old closet case while still getting him to accept himself. But that’s an old conversation. I decided long ago to let them live.

Congrats to both of them!
