Glee Actor Cheyenne Jackson Marries Longtime Partner Monte Lapka

Glee and 30 Rock star Cheyenne Jackson and his physicist boyfriend Monte Lapka tied the knot on Saturday after a long courtship.

Jackson, 36, couldn’t contain his excitement for the event, making the official announcement on Twitter as the couple spent some time together on the beach.

Jackson tweeted a simple message to his fans:

“It’s official, after 11 years together, Zora’s no longer a bastard.”

Zora, who the couple call their “daughter” is a dog they share together in their New York home.

Jackson went on to say that he “Married the best man I’ve ever known.”

After New York passed a gay marriage law it shouldn’t have surprised any of Jackson’s fans that he quickly tied the knot, back in the fall the actor who plays “vocal adrenaline” coach Dustin on the hit Fox series Glee spoke with WNBC New York about his dream wedding, telling them it would be

“Something small. My dream wedding involves just close friends and good music.”

He went on to reveal:

“And we’ll both be in tuxes. Unfortunately, nobody’s going to be wearing a dress, but that’s okay, too…Our dog would be there. Our dog, our daughter, Zora. … Pretty boring, but something just nice and on the beach.”

The Twitpic (shown above) of the happy couple on the beach with no huge reception in sight appears to echo his wishes for a simple, friends only affair.

Congratulations to Cheyenne Jackson, Monte Lapka and of course Zora.

Are you happy to see the couple finally marrying after such a long period of time?
