RuPaul offered a rare insight into his long-lasting love for his spouse Georges Le Barrecalling a moment during their first days of dating that changed their relationship.
“When we first started dating, he asked me, ‘Hey, can I floss your teeth?’ Fk no, you can’t floss my teeth. I’ve never heard of that,” RuPaul, 63, said during an episode of the Podcast ‘Call her daddy’ on Wednesday, March 13. “He wanted to be so intimate with me. … I’ve never forgotten that.”
He added: “He didn’t just want to be inside me, but he wanted to be a part of me. I had never experienced that level of intimacy before.”
From the first moment he met LeBar, 51, RuPaul knew he was a “kind and friendly” man.
“He never hurt my feelings, ever,” says the RuPaul’s Drag Race host shared on Wednesday’s podcast, revealing that he and LeBar briefly separated before getting married.
RuPaul met LeBar in 1994, putting their relationship on hold after they both got sober. (RuPaul has been sober since 1999.)
“Even [in] The time we were apart, we both realized there’s no one I like more,” RuPaul told the “Call Her Daddy” host. Alexandra Kuiper. “The chance of me meeting someone who I felt so comfortable with and felt that way about myself is very rare.”
Years after reconciling, the couple officially tied the knot on their anniversary in 2017.
“If you are committed to a person, nothing will change that. And after 23 years, you know, hey, I know him. He knows me,” RuPaul shared Entertainment tonight months after their wedding. “I love him. He is my favorite person on the planet that I have met. I have met a lot of people. I have met a lot of people. He is my favorite person.”
The artist previously shed light on the couple’s open marriage during a chat with The New Yorker.
“I meet new people, but do I go out to dinner with people socially, or do I meet someone and say, ‘Hey, let’s go for a walk’? Very rarely,” RuPaul said earlier this month, noting that he doesn’t have a “circle of people that I can kind of rely on” when it comes to intimacy.
He went on to say that being monogamous isn’t “realistic,” adding, “There is no such thing as monogamy in men.”
