Allstate Ad Features Recently Married Gay Dads

Mon. December 7, 2015

Chicago, IL - Allstate has released a web commercial that features a recently married gay male couple and their daughter.

In 2-minute ad, which is part of Allstate's Here's to Firsts campaign, viewers are introduced to Danny and Andrew and their daughter Nora Alice.



"The year has flown by so quickly," Danny says. "And we've had a lot of memorable firsts. A year ago we didn't even know we were going to be parents."

"The second we held her I knew that she was ours," he adds.

"Celebrating the holidays with family I think it's brought everyone closer," Andrew says.

"Within our lifetime we have gotten married and had a child. Twenty years ago that wouldn't have happened," Danny says.

Allstate is the latest company to use gay couples in their ads; recent examples include Nordstrom, Kohl's, Famous Footwear and Campbell's Soup.
