‘Family Karma’ Season 2: Who’s in the cast and what drama will unfold
Amrit Kapai is open to showing his wedding to Nicholas Kouchoukos on Season 3 of “Family Karma” to help educate and support fans.
Kapai, 35, came out to his grandmother and proposed to his boyfriend of nine years on Season 2 of the Bravo series, telling Page Six in a recent interview that the couple would televise their wedding if it could help others in similar family situations.
“The more that people are able to see our story and relate to us the better; it’s all about exposure,” he said. “It’s all of us showing a person out there who maybe hasn’t come out or hasn’t mustered the courage — to show them, like, you can do the same thing.
“Just because you’re gay doesn’t mean you can’t have a big wedding and you can’t wear a tux and walk down the aisle with your mom. You can still have all of that. And that’s my goal. I want to show people that just because you’re gay doesn’t mean you can’t have it all.”
While the couple is still in the preliminary stages of their wedding planning, Kapai is already starting to think of ways to incorporate his Indian culture into their nuptials.
“One of the events during the wedding is called the Mehndi ceremony and it’s usually when the bride puts on like henna all over her arms and her legs,” he explained. “And obviously, we don’t have a bride in our wedding and I don’t think Nicholas is going to be the ‘bride.’
“But I kind of want to make it an event that’s focused on my mom, because when she was growing up in India they didn’t have a ton of resources to throw at her or her wedding. So to give her, like a fancy Mehndhi … I would love for my mom and Nicholas’ mom to be guests of honor at a Mehndi.”
For now, Kapai said his excitement is focused on the Season 2 finale of the series.
He teased, “You’re going to see a lot of storylines come full circle. You’re going to see more of the dynamic between our moms, which is really cool because you get to see their stories and how they’re processing … So that’s all going to be really touching.”
He also lightheartedly promised, “You will see more underwear!”
The “Family Karma” season finale airs Wednesday at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
