At the **2025 Oscars**, no one appeared to have more fun than **Colman Domingo**, who seized every opportunity to dance. During a commercial intermission, he even ventured onto the stage, inviting fellow attendees to join him—champagne in hand. While the **Best Actor** nominee didn’t walk away with an Academy Award, he enjoyed the steadfast support of his husband, **Raúl Domingo**.

The couple made a notable impression on the **red carpet**, with Colman rejoicing in his nomination for *Sing Sing*. Their presence rekindled interest in their romantic narrative, which they had only publicly disclosed once before.

In **February 2024**, during an appearance on *The Graham Norton Show*, Colman shared the distinctive circumstances of how he and Raúl first connected back in **2005**—via a **Craigslist “missed connections” ad**. While in **Northern California**, Colman caught sight of a “gorgeous” man outside a **Walgreens in Berkeley** but didn’t have an opportunity to approach him. A few days later, while exploring Craigslist, he found a post titled *”Saw you outside of Walgreens — Berkeley,”* penned by none other than Raúl just hours prior.

The two met face-to-face three days later, and Colman experienced an immediate spark. “At **4 a.m.**, I couldn’t find sleep. I said, ‘I think I love you, and you’re about to change my life.'” Nearly **20 years on**, their love continues to thrive.

Despite their enduring relationship and collaborative **production company**, the couple chooses to keep the majority of their private lives away from public attention. Colman disclosed in an interview with *The Times*, “We recognized that people would be curious about my husband, so we concluded, ‘We’ll provide one straightforward story. But just one.'”
