野人花園歌手與同志戀人在英國結婚

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Darren Hayes, one-half of defunct Australian pop duo Savage Garden, said he married his boyfriend in a recent civil ceremony in London.
【路透社洛杉磯報導】前澳洲流行二重唱組合野人花園之戴倫海斯表示日前與男友在倫敦透過民事儀式共結連理。

The announcement, made to fans Monday on Hayes' web site, offered a rare insight into his private life, which he has long kept under wraps.
本週一，戴倫海斯在個人網站上公佈這個消息，罕見地報告他長期以來保密的私生活狀況。

"As so many of you have given me your heart and soul over the past 10 years I thought it only fitting that I too return the respect and inform you of the most significant event in my life," Hayes wrote.
海斯表示：「因為過去十年你們把心和靈魂都託付給我，今天我也以和大家報告我今生最重要的事情。」

"On June 19th 2006 I married my boyfriend of two years, Richard (Cullen), in a civil partnership ceremony in London. I can honestly say it was the happiest day of my life."
又說：「2006年6月19日，我和我認識兩年的男朋友Richard在倫敦結婚了，這是我這輩子最快樂的時光。」

While Hayes said he finally felt "secure and content" in his heart, he reaffirmed his belief that "families and relationships are not commodities to be sold off for public consumption," and would therefore remain "a public person with a private life." He was briefly married in the late 1990s to a longtime female friend.
海斯表示終於感覺到「其心可託的所在。」他更強調：「家人的關係不應該拿來外界炒作，因此我要成為一個有私生活的公眾人物。」90年代，海斯短暫的首次婚姻是和他一生的女性好友。

On the professional side, the 34-year-old is about to spend six months in London recording his third solo album for an unspecified new label. He announced earlier this month that he had split with his home of 10 years, Columbia Records.

至於事業方面，三十四歲的戴倫海斯下半年的時間將會致力於新專輯，至於新東家，他並沒有交代清楚。日前，他表示脫離過去十年的唱片公司，新力哥倫比亞唱片。

Singer/songwriter Hayes and producer/multi-instrumentalist Daniel Jones formed Savage Garden in 1994. Their two albums, 1997's self-titled debut and 1999's "Affirmation" sold more than 23 million copies combined worldwide. The duo also topped the U.S. singles charts with the tunes "I Knew I Loved You" and "Truly, Madly, Deeply." They split in 2001, and Hayes released his solo debut, "Spin," the following year.
野人花園1994年由身兼歌手、創作者的戴倫海斯及身兼製作人、樂器全才的丹尼爾瓊斯組成，1997年發行的同名專輯和1999年的認定專輯全球銷售量超過兩億三千張，「注定愛妳」、「真愛痴狂」等單曲都是美國排行榜冠軍金曲。2001年解散後，戴倫海斯又發表個人單飛專輯「心靈節奏」等。
