BARCELONA (Reuters) - A Russian family who fled their country after receiving homophobic messages and death threats online for appearing in a supermarket advert say their ordeal was worthwhile because it helped raise the profile, if briefly, of the LGBT+ community.
Yuma Yuma, a 49-year-old psychologist who has a female partner, appeared with her two adult daughters, Mila and Alina, and Alina's fiancée in a promotional article on the website of food retailer Vkusvill. It pictured the women in a kitchen saying they liked the shop's food.
