　　It is reported that an Arizona judge is questioning the validity of Thomas Beatie's marriage to his wife Nancy, deeming the couple's union to be a same-sex one, which isn't legal in the state. The couple, who tied the knot in 2003, represented themselves as a heterosexual pair at the time because Thomas reportedly had a state-authorized sex change with legal documentation prior to the wedding。据报道，亚利桑那州的法官对托马斯-比提和妻子南希婚姻的合法性提出质疑，法官认为这是同性婚姻，在亚利桑那州并不合法。托马斯和南希于2003年结婚，当时被认为是异性婚姻，因为托马斯在婚前已经拥有了政府承认的合法的变性手续。

　　Though both his birth certificate and U.S. passport identify Beatie as a man, he has since given birth to three children and hence, the judge isn't convinced by the legal documentation and is still deliberating as to how to proceed。尽管托马斯的出生证明和美国护照上都认定他是男性，但是他却怀孕生养了三个孩子，这一点让法官认为他的合法身份证明不可信，从而使得托马斯的离婚程序变得相当复杂。

　　At the time of the separation, Beatie told People magazine, "Like all marriages, we have our ups and downs, and we’re going through a rough patch right now. At the moment, we’re separated." He also revealed that he had completed final female-to-male gender reassignment surgery at the time, adding, "Nancy hasn’t seen the new me yet."托马斯-比提在分居期间，曾对《人物》杂志说，“和所有的婚姻一样，我们的婚姻也存在起起伏伏，而现在我们正在经历一个大坎。现在，我们处于分居状态。”托马斯还自爆自己现在已经完成了全部的变性手术(小编注：托马斯之前做的变性手术并没有切除子宫)，“而南希还没有见过崭新的我。”

　　Beatie was deemed "the world's first pregnant man" when he appeared in a series of 2007 photos with a scruffy beard and a baby bump。托马斯之前因为“世界上第一个怀孕爸爸”而为人知晓，他留着胡子、挺着大肚子的照片曾在2007年登上过各种头条。
