"Let those without sin cast the first stone" comes to mind.
As for the outing person, I'd suggest to her that she speak to the priest before doing anything. She may not understand the potential ramifications of her intended action. Should people in this church be outed for other offenses? Where do they draw the line?
As for the person doing the traveling shows, I'm not sure what her motivation is to take a gay man and publicly announce that he is her husband, other than money. That is intentional deceit and I'm not sure I'm comfortable with that. She put herself in that situation and may have to pay for the consequences. I don't think you need to beg to protect her.
There is no reason that I can think of that you need to out yourself. You are being paid for a service, not for your morality.

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
