Remarriage Equality: Cheyenne Jackson To Take Second Trip Down The Aisle
EDGE READ TIME: 2 MIN.
And they said, "it wouldn't last."
Merely six months after announcing his divorce after a two-year marriage and a 13-year relationship with husband Monte Lapka, Broadway bad boy and now serial monogamist Cheyenne Jackson confirmed rumors of his engagement to new beau Jason Landau.
"They've already begun planning the wedding!" an insider told Us Magazine. Jackson and Landau went public with their relationship in Oct. 2013 just two months after the 38-year-old "30 Rock" alum and Tony Award nominee announced his split from long time partner Monte Lapka.
"We had a good long run, almost 13 years...[The split] was mutual and it was amicable. He is a wonderful man." Jackson told Sirius Out Q's Frank DeCaro in an interview last year, adding, "I'm a little naive to think that people will even care, but they do, [..]You have to understand the significance that your relationship had to other people. I know that our marriage meant a lot to other people."
Scandal surrounded Jackson in 2013. In September, Queerty reported that a 52-second sex tape featuring him masturbating surfaced online. The New York Daily News reported that the star never denied making the video.
Independent of his romantic life and Internet sexual escapades, the past year has seen Jackson the subject of much media speculation. The sporting of a 70's style mustache and cryptic new tattoo raised eyebrows last summer and had many wondering if the hunky star hadn't gone off the deep end.
As reported in the Huffington Post, during the DeCaro interview, Jackson shrugged off rumors, explaining that the mustache was for a film role and that the new tattoo that included lyrics from and Elvis Presley song was an homage to his father. Jackson also admitted to DeCaro during that interview that he had been attending AA meetings.
