VADODARA: Manvendrasinh Gohil, the prince of the erstwhile state of Rajpipla who made his homosexuality public two years ago, has now declared openly that he has found a lover. Cupid was apparently following shoot-at-sight orders when Gohil first saw Michael Lower, a 35-year-old Briton.

Lower visited Rajpipla recently and he joined his royal lover in speaking to DNA during their visit to Vadodara.

“I met Mike in a gay bar in Britain and I felt that it was love at first sight for me,” Gohil said of Michael, who works as a media agent for an Indian in the UK. “I told Mike that I was in the UK to find love and then started dating him at coffee shops and restaurants.” Michael, who refers to Gohil as ‘Mani’, was smitten by the prince’s unassuming ways. “Mani is very simple and I love him for that,” Michael said. “I was in a relationship before, for eleven long years, but for the past three years I have been single.”
