Singer Gloria Estefan has shared why she’s a supporter of marriage equality.

Estefan shared her thoughts with the Miami Herald ahead of the gay pride parade in Miami Beach.

I’ve got to tell you, I’ve been talking about this for many many years and I’ve always said that I thought that everybody should be able to legally bind themselves, emotionally and religiously – if so, in the end of that’s what they want, to their significant other.

It’s a human right, it’s a civil right and I’m happy to support that.

In 2013 Estefan returned to charts with her album ‘The Standards’ which saw her singing classic songs including ‘You Made Me Love You’, ‘They Can’t Take That Away’ and ‘I’ve Grown Accustomed To His Face’. Check out the video of Estefan’s statement below.
