Ellen Page made her red carpet debut with girlfriend Samantha Thomas at the premiere of her new film Freeheld.
The actress, who announced she is gay in February last year (14), debuted her first public relationship with a woman at the Toronto International Film Festival in Canada on Sunday (13Sep15).
Page tells E! News, "I'm in love. Walking down the carpet holding
my girlfriend's hand is pretty special. It's pretty awesome."
The two women both wore tuxedos on the red carpet for Page's new
film, which stars Julianne Moore as a policewoman who fights for
her partner, played by Page, to be entitled to her pension after
being diagnosed with cancer.
