Gays fall in love too, and Hallmark has embraced that fact with the 2022 Christmas movie The Holiday Sitter. Apparently once you go gay you don’t go back. Hallmark It is coming out with a new series named Ride, featuring an out-gay actor Jake Foy. He is ticking all the boxes for Hallmark and he's becoming a heartthrob in the process. Foy is playing Tuff McMurray, a strapping young man in the upcoming drama series. The Hallmark Channel launched 30 years ago. There is no denying that its roots are firmly planted in faith-based soil. Four years ago they initially stopped airing ads for Zola.com, an online wedding registry, because it featured a same-sex wedding. But they reinstated the ad and shifted their Standards and Practices to work with the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) to include more LGBTQ+ storytelling. Knowing that Hallmark has only recently adjusted its programming to be more inclusive, this new series and Foy’s role hold great significance. #christmas #hallmark #gay #lgbt #love #glaad #lesbian #ride
