Singer Ricky Martin has denied rumors
that he's preparing to marry his boyfriend Carlos Gonzales in Spain.
During
an appearance last week on Spain's El
Programa de Ana Rosa,
journalist Miguel Angel Nicolas said the couple was considering
taking up residency in Spain, which would allow the Livin' la Vida
Loca singer to legally marry Gonzales.
The couple cannot marry in Puerto Rico,
a territory of the United States, because it is not legal. While
five states and the District of Columbia have legalized gay marriage,
federal law does not recognize such unions. Socialists in Spain
legalized the institution in 2005.
“In my house there is no talk of
marriage,” Martin told reporters on Monday at a news conference in
Mexico to promote his latest studio album Musica + Alma + Sexo
(Music + Soul + Sex), the
Spanish news agency EFE reported.
“I'm not going to get married, we are
very happy as we are, we've been together three years,” Martin
added.
The former Menudo star and
father of twin boys Mateo and Valentino announced
he's gay a year ago last week.
