\u00a9 ASSOCIATED PRESS\u00a0Curt Freed (left) and husband Robert Ingersoll<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a0Washington Supreme Court\u00a0<\/a>upheld its 2017 opinion that found Arlene\u2019s Flowers had unlawfully discriminated against Robert Ingersoll and Curt Freed by denying them service on religious grounds in 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are thrilled that the Court has reaffirmed its ruling in our favor,\u201d Freed and Ingersoll said in a statement. \u201cDiscrimination hurts, especially while planning what should be one of the happiest times of your life. We hope that this ruling will prevent what happened to us from happening to others.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
