Former professional baseball player TJ House marries longtime partner Ryan Neitzel
Former Major League Baseball (MLB) player TJ House and his fiancé Ryan Neitzel have tied the knot. Back in 2022, the former Toronto Blue Jays player made headlines when he came out in a heartwarming statement to social media. “I’ve struggled my entire life with being comfortable in my own skin.
I have purposefully distanced myself from people for the sake of trying to protect myself,” he wrote on Facebook. “It’s disheartening how one simple thing can change an individual’s opinion of you in a matter of seconds.
It has taken me years to wake up every morning and tell myself that you are loved for you, the one that’s deep down inside that you’ve never truly let out.” Towards the end of his statement, House said that the passing of the historic Respect For Marriage Act inspired him to come out before he revealed his exciting engagement to Neitzel. “It allows Ryan Neitzel and I to come together and create something beautiful.
It gives me the confidence to get engaged to the person I love (he said Yes!), to marry them,” he revealed. “I have a wonderful fiance who challenges me daily to become a better person.” Since announcing the news, the adorable lovebirds have remained mum on their wedding festivities… until now.
