RICHMOND, KY (WAVE) - A same-sex Kentucky couple said they were asked to leave a park in Richmond, but those women insist they did nothing wrong.

Cherie Chenault and her partner, Destiny, are expecting a baby boy in September.

The couple went to Million Park in Richmond to take maternity picture. When the photographer asked them to kiss for a photo, the couple was asked to leave.

The manager of the part-private, part-public park decided not to do an on-camera interview. He said in the future, anyone who wants to, can go to the park.
