Barry Manilow secretly wed longtime manager Garry Kief last year: report
April 9, 2015
Barry Manilow is a married man-dy!
The pop icon quietly tied the knot with longtime manager Garry Kief in a small private ceremony in 2014, according to The National Enquirer, which first reported the story.
The pair exchanged vows at Manilow’s home in Palm Springs, Calif., an insider told the publication.
“It was a surprise,” the couple’s friend said, adding that the “20 to 30 guests” invited to the “Copacabana” singer’s home thought they were attending a lunch.
While the pair is said to have not filed any official paperwork, Manilow, 71, and Kief, 66, reportedly exchanged wedding bands as a signal of their dedication.
“(They) are committed to one another and have been for a very long time,” another source told People magazine. “They have a great relationship. Garry has always been there for Barry.”
Longtime friend and neighbor Suzanne Somers acted as the best man and Marc Hulett, Barry’s assistant since the 1980s, performed the “commitment ceremony” after registering online to become a minister, according to the Enquirer.
A source told People that while the news Manilow was marrying a man may be surprising to some people, he has never hidden his sexual orientation.
