Bryan Batt Axed from Mad Men

Openly gay actor Bryan Batt has been axed from hit U.S. TV series Mad Men.

Batt has become known for his role as art director Salvatore Romano on the 1960s-set drama, which premiered in 2007.

He recently raised his concerns about losing his job after his TV character was fired - and his worst fears have come true.

TV bosses have now confirmed he won't be joining the rest of the cast when the show returns for its fourth season, but insist there is no bad blood between the two parties.

Series creator Matthew Weiner explains, "Losing Bryan was a tough moment for the show, but that's where we are.

"I know how people felt about Bryan. I obviously love working with him, and he has been an indelible character since the pilot. But I felt it was an expression of the times that he couldn't work there anymore."

Mad Men Star Bryan Batt Planning Gay Marriage

Mad Men star Bryan Batt is reportedly set to exchange vows with his longtime partner in a same sex marriage later this year.

The gay actor, 46, has been dating Tom Cianfichi, an actor-turned-event planner, for two decades and the couple is now ready to make its union official with a wedding in Vermont, where same sex unions are legal.

A source tells the National Enquirer, "Bryan is at the top of his game professionally, and they've never been happier.

"They're leaning toward a Christmas wedding in Vermont."

Batt and Cianfichi, who own homes in Louisiana, Los Angeles and New York, have begun planning for their wedding, which promises to be an extravagant occasion.

The insider adds, "Bryan and Tom already consider themselves married, and are registered as domestic partners in New Orleans.

"Tom's working on the wedding arrangements, and with their combined style and taste; it's certain to be a big event. They intend to pull out all the stops." »
