This Cheerios ad features real-life gay couple André and Jonathan. After meeting on a blind date, the two felt an ‘immediate connection.’ They fell in love and dreamed of having a good life together. At some point, they decided that they could not keep all the love and luck to themselves, and that they needed to share. That's when the idea of adoption came into play.
The guys fell in love with their new daughter Raphaëlle at the moment of introduction by the adoption agency.
The couple understands that it is not a perfect world and that there are people who are against the idea of a gay couple having kids. But they know that they are great dads, and had this to say about the issue: "If Raphaëlle has a problem to have two dads… it’s not going to be our fault, because I [didn't] have confidence in myself for all my life, but for this, I know: We are good parents."
The ad is part of Cheerios' latest campaign called "The Cheerios Effect," which in essence means that "Just like two Os in a bowl, we all love to connect."
What an inspiring love story!
