Will and his adopted daughter Stassa get ready for Will's marriage to his male partner.
Will and his partner originally lived in California, where they were wedded in 2004 when the mayor of San Francisco made marriage licenses available to same-sex couples. The Supreme Court of California later declared these unions void. The couple moved with Stassa to Barcelona, where resident same-sex foreigners may legally marry.
