Ellen Page Celebrates Pride Month with Wife Emma Portner in Topless Kissing Photo Ellen Page/Instagram Page first began posting photos with Portner, 24, on social media in the summer of 2017, and in January 2018 the actress revealed that the couple had tied the knot. In a recent interview with PorterEdit, the actress admitted she’s “so in love” and absolutely adores “being married.” “I’ll be walking my dog, and I start talking to people, and I end up telling them about my wife and making them look at our Instagram. I’m that person,” she told the outlet. Ellen Page Was ‘Forced’ to Wear Dresses Before Coming Out: ‘People Cannot Know You’re Gay’ In 2014, Page came out as gay at a Human Rights Campaign event in a rousing speech that earned her a standing ovation. The actress said she was ready to come out in hopes that her experience would help other people struggling with their sexuality. “I remember being in my early 20s and really believing it was impossible for me to come out,” the actress, who’s now an outspoken advocate for LGBTQ rights, told PorterEdit. “But, over time, with more representation, hearts and minds have changed. It doesn’t happen quickly enough and it hasn’t happened enough, particularly for the most marginalized in the community. But things have got better.”
