The Great British Bake Off winner dishes on the forbidden romance & what it meant for his relationship.

Another study has confirmed what we already know—homosexuality is a part of nature. The BBC reports that a new study on zebra finches has discovered that same-sex pairings of the colorful birds not only exist but they also participate in mating behavior just like their heterosexual counterparts.

Last week we reported the heartrending story that Buddy and Pedro, a “gay penguin” couple at the Toronto Zoo, were being forced to separate to help propagate their species with fewer than 250,000 African Penguins in existence. But now it looks as though Buddy, 20, and Pedro, 10, who “pair bonded” at the zoo, will be reunited in the spring once they’ve done their duty on behalf of the African Penguin population.
Zookeepers at the Toronto Zoo have noticed that two African penguins, Buddy and Pedro, are not just inseparable, but also show signs of mating behaviors. These two penguins apparently have very good genes, and the zoo plans to separate them and pair them with female penguins for breeding. African penguins are endangered, so the plan to separate the duo for breeding is part of a plan among zoos to help species survive.

She is waiting to hear if church deacons will endorse her position and if a vote of the congregation will be necessary.
