It’s a dark day for fans of romance and flamingos — the relationship between two same-sex birds has flown the coop.
Denver Zoo broke the fowl news in a post intended to celebrate pride month, but instead they had to announce Freddie Mercury and Lance Bass are no longer rockin’ together.
The zoo’s famed same-sex flamingos had originally gotten together to be “surrogate parents” in case a breeding pair of the birds was unable to raise a chick on their own.
Lance and Freddie were an item for a number of years before they called it quits … according to the zoo. As ya might expect, coming in the middle of Pride Month … the announcement ruffled some feathers online.
The zoo assures the public it was an amicable breakup … but we can’t confirm that, yet.
They say the notion of “mating for life” isn’t true for all birds — the zoo’s flock of 75 flamingos has seen some couples stay together forever, while others jump from partner to partner … no shame intended.
BTW, Freddie has since paired up with a female flamingo named Lommi … and Lance is still single and ready to mingle. Keep your head up, Lance!!!
