Garry Kief And Barry Manilow
In a career spanning 50 years, singer and song-writer Barry Manilow is one of the greatest A-list stars on this list. He was always regarded as a major heartthrob among women, which is maybe why he decided to keep his sexuality a secret during the prime-time of his career.
It wasn't until 2017 that he publicly came out, confessing that he had been in a secret relationship with TV executive Garry Kief since 1978. The couple got secretly married in 2014 as soon as gay marriage became legal in California. Currently, Kief is Manilow's husband, best friend, and manager.
