Gay porn stars to tie the knot 12 years after their first scene

The maths professor who students were shocked to find out used to be a gay porn star is getting married – to an actor he met on set.

Ruggero Freddi, whose stage name was Carlo Masi, is set to marry fiancé Gustavo Leguizamon on May 4.

Speaking to PinkNews, Ruggero – who teaches at La Sapienza University in Rome – said that when he and his partner first saw each other, they clashed.

“Gustavo and I met during the shooting of his first movie in Sacramento,” he explained, before describing a meet-cute which would be right at home in a ’90s rom-com.

“Being the biggest star of the company, I introduced myself expecting that a newcomer would know who I was – but he pretended he didn’t know.”

“So I got upset, angry and fell in love,” he added, laughing.

“We hung out together, so I spoke to the producer and asked if I could shoot a scene with him.”

But as it turns out, the pair didn’t need a script to light their fire.

“One month later, the night before we shot the scene together, we slept together and fell in love,” he said.
