Randy was in a steady relationship with a man named Michael Landry for many years.

The TLC star has shown his designing chops and people skills on the show over the course of his 13 years and 19 successful seasons. While he lights up other people’s love life and wedding days, the bridal dress designer has always kept his personal life under wraps.

However, most recently the low-key reality TV personality revealed a shocking and emotional detail about his personal life.

Taking to his social media on June 26 Randy revealed the heartbreaking news that he had lost his partner Michael just a few days ago. The designer posted pictures of the two over the years and revealed that the two had been dating for 8 years.
