Amazing Race contestants Pat Hendrickson and Kate Lewis tied the knot Wednesday in California, the Ventura County Star reported.
The women, who have been together for 11 years, took a political stance on their marriage. "I'm OK with you not accepting who I am," Hendrickson told the Star. "But don't tell me that I have to be something else to have my rights in this country."
Both Hendrickson and Lewis are members of the Episcopalian clergy. Hendrickson is an ordained deacon, and Lewis is a priest.
Although the women lasted only two episodes on the CBS reality show, they had plenty of opportunities for adventure, including riding a high-wire bicycle over a ravine.
"Who would have ever thought we would do that?" Hendrickson told the Star, remembering the show's transcontinental competitions. "And a year ago who would ever have thought we would do this?" (The Advocate)
