"I’m just so pleased now to have found someone who I am happy to call my partner."
“找到了这个我愿意称之为伴侣的人我是如此的开心”
"’Coming out’” is such a funny phrase, but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point.

"In an ideal world, I know the girls would like their mother and father still to be together, but they love their 21st-century family that we have built, too. Their father has a boyfriend. It’s that complicated and that simple, but finding James means I will not have to lie to anyone or grow old on my own."
“在理想世界里，我知道女孩们更愿意她们的父母仍在一起。但是她们也喜欢我在21世纪建立的新的家庭。她们的父亲有一个男朋友。这是复杂的也是简单的，但是找到詹姆斯意味着我将再也不用向任何人说谎或者孤独终老。”
