In October 2020, Quest said 'I do' to his American husband sharing a beautiful picture with his lover.
Quest captioned the post; "We said ‘I Do’ at the weekend. Happiest day of our lives."
The two lovers were forced to postpone their wedding in March but promised to tie the knot before the end of the year.
"Today Chris and I were supposed to get married in London. Of course, we had to postpone. Sad but necessary. We will marry later in the year, at a bigger party. I wanted to acknowledge how we are all facing such difficult times, in so many different ways. This too shall pass," he said then.
The Quest Means Business presenter visited Kenya in October 2018 where he opened up about his sexuality.
