Jim Parsons dropped by The Ellen DeGeneres Show Tuesday, where he and the host humorously compared notes on their wedding anniversaries.
Its such a weird thing, being a gay couple at my age, said Parsons, who married Todd Spiewak in May 2017. Because [when we got together], you couldnt get married. So now, this is our 16th year together, but its our first [anniversary]. Were back to paper, is it? Is that what the gift is? Thats bullshit.
I want gold! he joked.
The Big Bang Theory star also chatted about his new movie, A Kid Like Jake . The film follows an affluent couple (played by Parsons and Claire Danes ) whose 4-year-old has gender variant interests, as the actor put it. They decide to mention these interests in an admissions essay for a competitive private school in hopes of making their child stand out from the other young applicants.
Its really kind of about that moment, in a macro way, when youre first launching your child into the world, Parsons said of the movie, which opened last week.
