The White House excludes the name of the husband of Luxembourg’s gay Prime Minister


The White House seemingly edited out the name of Luxembourg Prime Minister’s husband,ย Gauthier Destenay.

The official White House picture, which included the spouses of Nato leaders, was published on the official White House Facebook page however at the time of publishing they omitted the name of Luxembourgย Prime Minster’s husband,ย Gauthier Destenay.

The picture formed part of a album of 97 pictures taken during President Donald Trump’s first international visit since taking office in January.

The picture included First Lady Emine ErdoฤŸan of Turkey; Icelandโ€™s Thora Margret Baldvinsdottir; the First Lady of France Brigitte Trogneux; First Lady Melania Trump; Sloveniaโ€™s Mojca Stropnik; Bulgariaโ€™s Desislava Radeva; Luxembourg’s Gauthier Destenay; Belgiumโ€™s Amรฉlie Derbaudrenghien, and Norwayโ€™s Ingrid Schulerud.

Luxembourg’sย Prime Minster Xavier Bettel is the world’s only openly gay head of state.

The omission ofย Gauthier Destenay’s name caused an immediate backlash on social media. The Gay & Lesbianย Alliance Against Defamation, or GLAAD, was swift to respond to the post asking, why Mrย Destenay was left out of the credit.
