BARRY Manilow has tied the knot with his manager Garry Kief last year, People.com claimed on Wednesday, citing multiple sources.
According to the report, Manilow and Kief held a surprise wedding at Manilow’s Palm Springs, California, home. The wedding was attended by 20 to 30 guests who were told “they were attending a lunch.”
The couple did not fill out official paperwork but they were wearing wedding bands to show their commitment to each other, the report said.
“They have a great relationship. Garry has always been there for Barry,” the source said.
Another source said that Manilow has always been open about his sexuality.
“He’s at a point now where he’s got his career and personal life in a great place and he really doesn’t care what people think. He’s in love and happy,” the source was quoted as saying.
The 71-year-old singer has not yet officially confirmed the report.
The Grammy award winning singer is known for his hit songs, which include “Copacabana,” “Can’t Smile Without You,” and “Mandy.” A.J.Hegina/AC
