According to recent news; Australia’s highest court struck down a landmark law on Thursday that had started allowing the country’s first gay marriages, shattering the dreams of more than two dozen same-sex the newlyweds whose marriages will now be annulled less than a week after their weddings.
Federal government had challenged the validity of the Australian Capital Territory’s law that had allowed gay marriages in the nation’s capital and its surrounding area starting last Saturday.
Federal government had challenged the validity of the Australian Capital Territory’s regulation that had permitted gay marriages in the nation’s capital and its surrounding area beginning last Saturday.
The Australian Capital Territory passed the law in October, said it should stand because it governs couples outside the federal definition of marriage as being between members of the opposite sex.
By the information; Ivan Hinton and Chris Teoh got married on Saturday, the result was heartbreaking. The couple just received their marriage certificate on Wednesday and immediately implemented to change their surnames to Hinton-Teoh.
Still, Hinton said he doesn’t regret going through with the wedding, and will always consider Teoh his husband.
Croome said; “And that victory was the nation saw for the first time, I believe, what is really at the core of this issue -they’ve seen that marriage equality is not about protest or politics or even about laws in the constitution, finally. Marriage equality is about love, affiliation, family and fairness”.
