Controversial congressman George Santos allegedly proposed to his then-teenage boyfriend in 2014 while being legally married to his now ex-wife Uadla Vieira, as per new reports. The engagement invitation reportedly took place five years before his divorce from Vieira.

In a 2014 Facebook invite shared to the Daily Beast by Santos’ old roommate Greg Morey-Parker, the politician reportedly asked friends to join him and his boyfriend Pedro for an engagement dinner at La Bonne Soupe in Midtown Manhattan:

“Good evening everyone! As you all may already know Pedro and I have decided to join our toothbrushes! Lol and a very few friends have been selected to share this special moment with us! Thanks for sharing this very important day in our lives.”

The Daily Beast reported that the engagement invite came nearly two years after Santos’ marriage to Vieira and 11 months before the latter filed for divorce in May 2013 and halted it by the end of the year.


What is known about Pedro Vilarva?

Pedro Vilarva recently made news as Long Island Rep. George Santos’ former boyfriend. The man was reportedly 18 years old when he met a 26-year-old Santos in 2014, as per The Daily Beast.

The publication reported that Santos allegedly invited Vilarva to an engagement dinner in 2014, but the latter said that he never accepted the proposal. Vilarva confirmed to the outlet that he rejected Santos’ proposals multiple times and that the engagement party “never happened."

“He asked me 3x but I didn’t accept it. There was never a party [or] anything in regards to it.”

Not much is known about Vilarva’s personal life and current whereabouts at the time of writing.


Netizens scrutinize George Santos’ claim about having a husband

Back in 2020, George Santos said that he was living with a partner named Matheus (aka Matt) and their four dogs. He also eventually called the man his husband.

In October 2022, Santos told the press:

“I am openly gay, have never had an issue with my s*xual identity in the past decade.”

However, his s*xual identity came under question amid his ongoing fraud CV controversy after it was revealed in December 2022 that he was previously married to a woman. At the time, the politician told the New York Post:

“I dated women in the past. I married a woman. I am ok with my s*xuality. People change.”

Reports suggest that Santos was married to a Brazilian woman named Uadla Vieira from 2012 to 2019, but their wedding was mostly kept under wraps.

More recently, sources told The Daily Beast that Santos dated a man named Pedro Vilarva in 2014, and the pair lived together until Vilarva moved out in 2015.

Santos’ former roommates also revealed that he invited Vilarva to an engagement dinner in 2014. In the wake of the latest update, several social media users took to Twitter to scrutinize the existence of Santos’ husband, Matt.

One user pointed out Matt's lack of online presence and the absence of Santos and Matt’s marriage license:

Meanwhile, others questioned Santos about his marriage timeline and his husband’s real name:

George Santos’ former roommate Greg Morey-Parker told the Daily Beast that Santos once allegedly tried to get him to marry some Brazilian woman “so she could get citizenship.”

Although he did not share when the suggestion was made, the friend claimed that Santos allegedly said he could “make money from the deal.”

Another former roommate, Yasser Rabello, told the publication that he lived with Santos, his sister, and their since-late mother in an apartment in Jackson Heights between 2013 and 2014 but “never knew” about the congressman’s marriage to his wife.

Rabello said Santos’ wife lived in Astoria at the time and the politician later introduced her to him as “a friend.”

George Santos’ marriage to his wife officially came to an end nearly two weeks before he filed the official paperwork to launch his initial 2020 campaign. However, the Republican did not mention his marriage to a woman in either of his campaigns.

In the wake of the latest revelations surrounding Santos’ past relationship with Pedro Vilarva, the politician told the outlet that he would not comment on the “slanderous accusations made by a person of the likes of Gregory.”
