The 56-year-old reality star - whose real name is RuPaul Andre Charles - tied the knot with his boyfriend of 23 years, Georges LeBar, on Wednesday (15.03.17) on the anniversary of the day they met at New York nightclub Limelight.

Announcing their happy news on US TV Show 'Hollywood Today Live', he shared: "I've never said this on television before. We are married!

"I met him on the dance floor at Limelight in 1994 on his birthday. We got married on his birthday on the anniversary of the night we met."

The 'RuPaul's Drag Race' host admitted that the couple didn't want to get married originally and had only considered it for "financial reasons".

He said: "We never wanted to do it. We were looking into it really for tax breaks and financial reasons."

The entertainer then gushed about how lucky he is to have found a "sweet and sensitive man".

He added: "He's so kind and funny. I remember praying, 'I want a sweet, sensitive man', and I got an Australian who's just lovely."

RuPaul hasn't revealed any details about their ceremony or if they are planning on going on a honeymoon.

However, he is currently gearing up for season eight of his hit show, which airs on on VH1 on March 24.

In 2013, Ru Paul joked about how he noticed Georges, who is a rancher, "dancing like a maniac" and said it was love at first sight.

At the time, he said: "He was on the dance floor, dancing like a maniac, I had to go over and say, 'What are you going through?' It's also because he's actually 6ft7, so he's taller than I am. So, of course I had to notice him."
