Rosie O’Donnell Marriage Plans On Hold »
Jun 6, 2008 in Rosie O’Donnell, GAY, Kelli Carpenter | 0 Comments
Rosie O’Donnell and her girlfriend Kelli Carpenter are evidently going to wait to get married again until gay marriage is legal across the entire country.
O’Donnell married Carpenter four years ago when the mayor of San Francisco allowed same-sex marriages, but that wedding was declared invalid.
Rosie says she and Kelli are “going to wait until it’s legal everywhere, because otherwise, I said to Kelli, we’ll be going around touring the country on the marriage tour every state by state.”
“The same way it was illegal for black and white people to marry at one point and people couldn’t conceive of that ever being different, I do think that two consenting, law-abiding adults who want to share their life together should be allowed to do that,” she said.
Many other gay celebrities like Ellen DeGeneres and Portia DeRossi, along with George Takei and his partner Brad Altman plan to get married in Cali after June 17th when it is legal to do so there.
