Australian MP Proposes to Longtime Partner During Same-Sex Marriage Debate in Parliament: WATCH

An endearing and emotional Australian parliament gay marriage proposal took place today during the debate over same-sex marriage when liberal MP Tim Wilson popped the question to his partner Ryan Bolger.

Said Wilson: “The person I have to thank most is my partner Ryan. You’ve had to tolerate the most because you’ve had to put up with me.

So there’s only one thing left to do: Ryan Patrick Bolger, will you marry me?”

After Bolger nodded ‘yes’ with a big smile, the Deputy Speaker took note, directing that it be taken down in official transcripts:

“I should let Hansard note to record that that was a ‘yes’ — a resounding yes.”
