Ralf Schumacher has married his partner, Étienne Bousquet-Cassagne, in Saint-Tropez, the couple announced on Instagram on June 4. The wedding comes after the pair revealed their relationship publicly in July 2024 and announced their engagement in February 2026.
Schumacher, the younger brother of Formula One legend Michael Schumacher, came out as gay when he introduced Bousquet-Cassagne on social media nearly two years ago. The couple’s wedding celebrations are also set to feature in their documentary series, which premieres on June 6.

Whatever the reason, these famous faces have shown that there is no age limit for when you should come out, and are now embracing their new public identities with pride. Click on to find out who they are.
