Jonathan further revealed that although they have exchanged their own vows, they have not yet celebrated their wedding due to the COVID pandemic. “It is coming,” he said of a future celebration. No date has been announced yet, but we can bet his fellow NKOTB members who he is tour withwill be there when it happens.

When Jonathan doesn’t spend time with his new husband, whom he’s been with since 2015, or his bandmates, he’s hard at work making home repairs on his HGTV show. “It was so much fun,” he said of the series. “I mean, I’ve been trying to get a show on TV for so many years, and really, HGTV told me we wouldn’t do the celebrity thing, and I said, ‘Oh.’ And then a few years later, everything changes, and they’re like, ‘Yeah, this is perfect,’ so it’s great. “
“It is a passion of mine, fixing houses,” he continued. “I post pictures on Instagram of projects I’ve worked on, and fans will always ask me, ‘What’s your other job besides New Kids?’ and I just think it’s great to be able to showcase what I do and people can watch. “
