How did they meet?

They were introduced at the Chichester Festival Theatre in 1991 after Gill came to see John in a production of Rope.

John claimed he knew instantly he had found the man "he wanted to spend the rest of his life with".

The pair entered into a civil partnership on December 27th 2006 at St David's Hotel in Cardiff, Wales.

They were among the first people to legally marry in the state of California on July 2 2013 (John had been brought up in the USA).

Do they have children?

The couple don't have any kids.

There has been speculation John has a daughter, but this has never been confirmed.
