Pro Wrestler Mike Parrow Marries Longtime Boyfriend Morgan Cole

People who have scheduled their weddings for the next few months are in for some difficult decision making, with the state of things, but some lucky couples managed to tie the knot right before things started to shut down.

Professional wrestler Mike Parrow was among them, marrying his longtime boyfriend Morgan Cole over the weekend.

“Me and Husband @joveyjove want to Thank everyone from the bottom of our hearts!” Parrow wrote on Twitter, sharing photos from their special day. “Thank you to our friends that were able [to] join us especially during the current circumstances and all the others who sent well wishes, it meant the world to us. The Wedding was perfect! It does get better!”

Parrow came out publicly via an article in Gay Star News at the end of 2017, say that he had been out to friends and family four years prior to that.

“I’ve always known I’m gay,” he said. “That was never a question in my mind. But growing up, I went to Catholic school my whole life. My mom’s a Sunday school teacher. I came from a small town in upstate New York. It didn’t have a flourishing gay community.”

Like so many people who struggle with unaccepting communities, Parrow tried to change his sexuality, an experience that ultimately led him to try conversion therapy as an adult after contemplating suicide.

It wasn’t until he met Morgan that things began to look up. He considers his now-husband to be the sign he was always looking for to fully embrace his sexuality.

The two dated for a little over four years before Parrow proposed, shortly before coming out to the world, and now, they get to look forward to spending the rest of their lives together.
