I did not see that about the ring, but I can see why they covered it. If the ring had been from a wife (is that the correct term? Are there two wife's in a gay marriage?) I still think they would have covered it.

Also I will admit to the Tivo effect as a possibility here. All the coverage I watched as recorded. I skipped past all the bios and other fluff watching just the events. During the events there is not much mention made of significant others.

Still as a foreign athlete in a sport the US sucked in, he was lucky if he shown on US TV for any length of time.

Yes, assuming it's a lesbian marriage.
