During Mitt's campaign trail in Oklahoma City in May, he told reporters (via E Online), "I have the same view on marriage that I had when I was governor. I believe marriage is a relationship between a man and a woman."
The couple also belongs to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which helped raise million of dollars in 2008 to support anti-gay-marriage bill Proposition 8 in California, according to Us Weekly.
Levitan's comment was tweeted on the eve of the Aug. 28 Republic National Convention, in which she created a warm image of Mitt while recognizing the nation's women.
