Watch This Italian Gay Couple Dance, and Try Not to Cry

There are no subtitles in this clip of a gay male Italian couple dancing together on Italia’s Got Talent, but they are clearly speaking the universal language of love, because we were in tears by the end.

Umberto and Roberto recently performed together on the Italian talent show, bringing the crowd and judges to their feet and also outing themselves to their dads. The couple said that they’d been out to their moms but that prior to their performance on the reality show, their dads did not know they were gay, according to Towleroad.

We’re not sure exactly what the judges said about Umberto and Roberto’s dance, except we did hear a lot of “bellissima,” which essentially translates to “ very beautiful.”

While the Umberto and Roberto may bring you to tears during their dance, their choice to perform together was also a brave act, considering Italy recently had to strip down a civil unions bill, removing provisions that would have allowed same-sex couples to adopt their partners’ biological children, in order for it to pass.

As we said, no subtitles are required to understand the love between Umberto and Roberto, as illustrated by these gifs, but be sure to catch the entire video and dance below.
