In an interview with Mirror.co.uk in March 2011, he revealed that he met his husband in 2001 in a club. Louie's colleague, Jason Gardiner, introduced him to Leto. He said his relationship with Leto Fernandez wouldn't have started if Jason wouldn't have made a mistake that day.
After dating for seven years, he and Leto got engaged on their anniversary. Leto proposed to him to get married, writing a poem for him.
Although he got into the marriage bond with Leto, he doesn't believe in marriage because he feels it's just a piece of paper. Instead, he believes "Love" has kept his marriage with Leto alive.
