Relying on dating sites to find their perfect match might not be an activity associated with celebs. With all those aftershow parties, surely singles in this world will naturally find themselves surrounded by opportunities. But when it comes to romantic relationships, famous people are no different from anyone else. Sometimes they’re looking for specific attributes in a partner. And unlike Joe Public, no matter where they’re looking for romance, there’ll be paparazzi hovering in the background. 

Therefore, many celebs, especially gays, are being drawn to the discreet realm of online dating, where no one judges, and they can truly open up. They might refer to gayhookupguide.com for pointers towards the best dating sites offering the best tools for interaction. Here are some well-known gay couples who met via this route.

Ricky Martin

Puerto Rican Martin is one of the biggest Latin American pop stars on the planet. Known as the King of Latin Pop, his music spans numerous genres, including pop, dance, Latin pop, and Salsa. Scoring new fewer than 11 US Billboard ‘Hot Latin’ songs, he has been presented with over 200 awards. He met his future husband, Jwan Yosef, via online dating. While there are many apps and websites specifically focused on matchmaking, there are other aspects of social media that are also popular for singles to flirt. In Martin and Yosef’s case, Cupid’s role was played by Instagram.

Adam Rippon

US figure skater Rippon was the first openly gay athlete to support his country at the Winter Olympics. At home, his shelves must be buckling under the weight of the many trophies he has accumulated over the years. Away from the rink, the handsome young man from Pennsylvania has been open about his use of dating apps. Not many of the other users can have profile information that includes having appeared in Taylor Swift videos, competing in his TV show Dancing with Stars, or guest-hosting RuPaul's Drag Race. He has undoubtedly flirted with many eligible bachelors in the digital world, but met his eventual husband, Finnish estate broker, Jussi-Pekka Kajaala, on a well-known app.

Sam Smith

London-born pop singer/songwriter Smith shot to fame in the 2010s with a string of hit singles. Releasing his first studio album, 'In the Lonely Hour, in 2014, his third single, 'Stay with Me,' shot to number one in Britain and number two in the USA, signaling the arrival of new talent. Smith's soulful voice is capable of sending shivers down the spine and has inspired legions of fans. You would think this adulation would equate to no problem finding romance in clubs, or at red-carpet events. But Smith is typical of many celebs who shun the limelight when it comes to their private lives, although the most difficult thing faced has been other site users assuming the profile featuring Sam Smith’s photo is a catfish!

Joshua Rush

Texan Rush is an American actor who is best known for his appearance in the Disney Channel show Andi Mack. Playing a 7^th Grade student, Cyrus Goodman, Rush became the first openly gay character to feature on the Disney network. On Twitter, he announced he had joined the dating app Bumble. Although he played the role of a gay man, he declared his bisexuality in 2019. He has been equally candid about other issues, such as the impact of his parent's divorce, and his mental health issues. He is someone who would prefer it if his social life wasn't plastered all across the gossip columns, so online dating would be perfect for his quest to find the ideal candidate for a couple.
