On ABC's "The View" David Hyde Pierce, who played Niles Crane on "Frasier" told the gals (and the audience) that he and his partner got married last fall.

That marriage was in California, where new gay marriages are now outlawed because of last week's court decision on
Proposition 8.

What you may not have known is that Pierce's partner Brian Hargrove is a Tarboro native and UNC-CH graduate.
