“Crying tears of joy,” commented Michelle Buteau

“Aweee,” added Jonathan Van Ness.

Previously, Lane dished on his romance with Aburton on an episode of Sibling Rivalry. “I have not felt this way in a very long time, I am very happy,” he told hosts Bob the Drag Queen and Monét X Change.

Lane and Aburto first met on Instagram, where Lane says they flirted in the DMs before moving to FaceTime where the two would talk all day. Eventually, Lane says, Aburto said he wanted to meet in person. Matteo had a few days off, so Aburto flew in from Mexico City. In the moments before they met, Lane says he started having second thoughts about having a strange man in his house, but that quickly changed. “The second I met him, I literally thought to myself, ‘Oh this man is going to be in my life for a very long time’,” he shared.

Turns out he was right. Congrats to the happy couple!
