After 17 years, Gov. Jared Polis and partner Marlon Reis will be getting married, the governor’s office confirmed.<\/p>\n
According to the Colorado Sun, which first reported the engagement Thursday morning, Polis asked Reis to marry him on Dec. 6, just before the 39-year-old Reis went to the hospital to be treated for COVID-19 symptoms. The governor was also infected with the virus at the time.<\/p>\n
Polis, 45, is the first openly gay governor in the United States.<\/p>\n
Polis and Reis, a writer and animal advocate, are raising two kids in Boulder, where they met when Polis moved back home after attending Princeton.<\/p>\n
The governor’s office did not provide details on the couple’s wedding date or plans.<\/p>\n
