In case you missed it, Chicago Fire actress Monica Raymund came out as bisexual leading up to the winter Olympics in 2014. Well.. that was when she came out as bisexual on Twitter but has shared that prior to her Tweet she had actually been out to those close to her.

Fast forward a bit of time and we can report on her her girlfriend! These are indeed exciting times!. Monica posted an Instagram photo of here gorgeous gal, Tari Segal with a caption reading, “She is the love of my life. World, meet my Queen, who has give me all my strength & courage. I love you @TSSegal”

That is so sweet.

It’s always nice to see more celebrities coming out and introducing us to their girlfriends. Of course sharing your sexuality to the masses is never really necessary but dropping something like this into celebrity culture and cyberspace does carry a bit of weight and influence.

Congratulations to Monica Raymund and her girlfriend. I wish them the best and hope that their happiness stays. It’s always great finding somebody to love who treats you well especially if you’re in a relationship that’s under the microscope of the world.

It’s time to make 2016 the year of acceptance and good relationships between all people and genders.  Let’s make it a time to love the differences between us and not feel afraid of them or put them down whether it’s straight or gay relationships.

We are working toward true love and acceptance to make the world a better place for everyone. So be kind to others and celebrate all relationships from every walk of life. As long as people are happy and not harming anyone.

Another shout out to Monica Raymund and Tari Segal may your relationship be happy, joyful and full of love and smiles.
