Luxembourg Prime Minister set to wed his gay partner

Xavier Bettel, the Prime Minister of Luxembourg (pictured right), will wed his gay partner, Belgian architect, Gauthier Destenay (left) today May 15th at a very private ceremony in Luxembourg. This will make him the first European Union leader to enter into a same-sex marriage and the second world leader to enter into a same sex marriage after Iceland’s prime minister Johanna Sigurdardottir, who married her writer partner in 2010. Bettel has been in a partnership with his partner since March 2010 and got engaged in August 2014.

Bettel who became Prime Minister in December 2013, told Belgium’s RTBF public television that he was getting married because he wants to accept his sexuality and avoid been unhappy all his life.

“I could have hidden it or repressed it and been unhappy my whole life. I could have had relations with someone of the other sex while having homosexual relations in secret. But I told myself that if you want to be a politician be honest in politics, you have to be honest with yourself and to accept that you are who you are.”

The low-key ceremony at the town hall in Luxembourg is being deliberately kept out off the media spotlight and will be followed by weekend-long private celebrations for around 500 guests.

ehmm... ehmm.. I have to say these. Did you guys notice the last statement in his speech "you have to be honest with yourself and to accept that you are who you are". Who you are? Does he think God made a mistake by making him a man. Sometimes, I laugh when i read stuffs like these, its disheartening to know how much people are still wallowing under the deceit and lies of the devil. How can someone just wake up one day, and decide to be gay. May God deliver us all from the trap of the devil. Anyway, this is just another story for the gods.
