When Neil Patrick Harris agreed to take the lead of Hedwig and the Angry Inch on Broadway it came with a strict rule from his husband, David Burtka — six months in New York, maximum.
An insider exclusively tells Breaking Celebrity News the deal was made between the two fathers because other men often flirt with Harris and Burtka, 39, wanted him back in Los Angeles with their two children.
"Neil and David came to an agreement that he would let Neil do Hedwig on Broadway for six months, including the rehearsals and previews," the source told Breaking Celebrity News.
"David was adamant that he not extend, partly, because moving to New York for longer than the summer would have been too disruptive for the kids."
But perhaps more pressing, was Burtka's jealousy when it comes to Harris, 41.
"David also didn't trust leaving Neil in New York to do the show while he and the kids went back to L.A. because he knows that other guys are always very flirtatious with Neil in LA and he didn't want to risk it in New York," the source revealed.
