Neil Patrick Harris And David Burtka – 12 Years Together
Sometimes we find love in the most unexpected places, as Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka discovered. Harris was struck by cupid when the two happened to be on the same New York City street corner at the same moment. He was so certain of his sentiments that he showed up everywhere they met. His perseverance paid off, and they eventually moved in together. Harper proposed to his sweetheart at the same location where they initially met, and they welcomed their surrogate children, Gideon and Harper, in October 2010. Three years after the same-gender marriage bill was approved, the couple made their union legal in September 2014.
