Bill de Blasio's wife was a lesbian until they got together - What's his real name?

Bill de Blasio isn't his real name, he's a climate fanatic who takes three SUVs to the gym and his wife was a lesbian until they got together: inside their weird world.

• Bill de Blasio, the two-term New York mayor, is the latest Democrat to run for 2020, making him the 24th candidate to enter the race 
• But he was born Warren Wilhelm Jr., and despite being New York's mayor is a Boston Red Sox fan 
• His wife Chirlane McCray is  six years his senior and was a lesbian who outed herself in 1979 - until they got together
• He was Hillary Clinton's campaign manager in 2000 and she and Bill posed with his family, but they fell out during the 2016 campaign
• De Blasio's time as mayor has been dogged by a corruption probe, allegations of hypocrisy and cops turning their back on him
• Climate change campaigner takes three police SUVs 11 miles virtually every day to go to his gym

He was born in New York under the name Warren Wilhelm Jr. His German-American father was a war hero, and also an alcoholic who would eventually kill himself. De Blasio at 21 became Warren de Blasio-Wilhelm, then solely used the family name of his Italian-American mother, and finally changed to using his family nickname of Bill, making that official in 2001.

Born in New York, he was brought up largely in Massachusetts, and as a result is a lifelong fan of the Boston Red Sox - probably the team most hated by New York baseball fans.
