Gorham Schools Hosts on H8

During an appearance on Today, actor Christopher Gorham was asked by confused hosts Hoda Kotb and Martina McBride about his photo taken for the No H8 campaign.

The actor, who appeared on the recently canceled gay-fave sitcom Ugly Betty, was interviewed about his new series, Covert Affairs, when the screen flashed a photo of Gorham's family. Kotb asked the actor why the photo showed tape covering the mouths of his wife and two of his children. Gorham explained that it was taken for the marriage equality campaign.

"What parent doesn't want to do that some days?" the actor said with a laugh.
