Actor Jim Parsons and producer Todd Spiewak got married in 2017 after being together for 15 years. They met on a blind date in 2002 after their mutual friends set them up. While promoting his new Netflix movie,The Boys in The Band, as a guest on the “HFPA In Conversation” podcast, Parsons shared, “This was a blind date set up by two friends of ours, one that was very close to me, Tammy who I went to grad school with, and [Spiewak’s] boss. They happened to be friends. This sounds so whatever, but they each had a gay friend who was looking for somebody to go on dates with. That’s how it happened.”
