'Once Upon A Time' introduce us to the show's first LGBT couple

Once Upon A Time

has followed up on promises of an LGBT couple coming to Storybrook it made back in September last year.

The latest episode of the ABC fantasy drama saw Ruby from Little Red Riding Hood kissing Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz, as the show introduces it’s first LGBT couple in five seasons and puts a unique twist on traditional notion of fairytale romance.

The romance started between the pair after a sleeping curse had been placed on Dorothy, which only her true love could wake her from…

Enter Ruby.

Executive Producer Adam Horowitz has said “It’s something we think is due and important to do on the show. This is the world we live in.”

And everyone seems pretty happy for the couple.
