Influential LGBTQ+ Celebrities And Their Partner

44. Beth Ditto & Kristin Ogata

Mary Beth Patterson and Beth Ditto are the same person, who is popularly known as the singer-songwriter, fashion muse, LGBTQ+ icon and feminist we all want to be friends with. Ever since she first burst into our lives as the lead singer of The Gossip, Ditto has always spoken her truth in the most empowering and fun ways, which makes her interview on the newest episode of the Changes With Annie Macmanus podcast well worth the listen.

Kristin Ogata is Beth Ditto’s best friend for 14 years. Once they had a pact that they would get married when Beth Ditto was 32 and Kristin Ogata was 35. In fact, in 2013, they are truly married in Hawaii. However, sadly, the two separated in 2018. Beth Ditto states that they are very close, inseparable! But they get a divorce by little things. It is reported that she is dating singer Ted Kwo currently.
