Star Trek legend and long-standing LGBT advocate George Takei has let the whole world in on his relationship with Brad Altman! The very open star makes most of the details of his life public through his Twitter and Instagram accounts, where he has a legion of loving fans. Charming, funny and seemingly always happy, Takei is filled with an infectious energy which presumably drew Altman to him in the first place.
Takei and Altman aren't just one of the longest-standing same-sex married couples in America, they were also among the first. Back in June 2008, when the chance for same-sex couples to marry became legal for the first time, they were the very first couple to gain a license for marriage in West Hollywood. That's a beautiful way to make history! We guess Takei really did achieve the mission laid out for his Star Trek character Captain Sulu: "To boldly go where no man has gone before".
