Kelly McGillis, the actress who won the heart of Tom Cruise in the 1986 movie Top Gun and came out as a card-carrying member of the LGBT community two decades later, wed girlfriend of ten years, Melanie Leis, in a civil union ceremony in New Jersey last week, The New York Times has learned.

Kelly’s most recent acting creds include two episodes of the sapphic lesbian-themed Showtime drama The L Word.
