‘Revenge’ star Nick Wechsler takes out ‘Esquire’ ad in support of GLAAD, marriage equality

As the U.S. Supreme Court is scheduled to hear oral arguments later this month in cases from four states, LGBT ally and star of Revenge Nick Wechsler took an ad out in the April issue of Esquire in support of marriage equality.

The ad reads “We met in 1976. Had our son in 1986. Paid off the mortgage (finally) in 2004. But still can’t legally marry in 2015.” over a photo of a couple holding hands. That is still the case in 13 states where loving couples who have built a life together are still waiting on legal protections in the state they call home.

“It’s important to me to be a visible ally to the LGBT community and encourage others to do the same. When we speak out, we have the opportunity to bring about real change and as an actor I feel it’s my responsibility to use the platform I have to join GLAAD in accelerating acceptance,” said Wechsler.
