    I suspected. First time one of my suspicions was confirmed on this subject.
    Good for him!

    AHHHHH YAY FINALLY!!!!!!! I love him so much! He's such a good actor and most of us already assumed as much. I was literally thinking about this the other day if he plans to come out anytime soon :icon_bigg

    Its so nice that he's in a 10 year relationship too! You don't really see it that often, so its good that him and other actors are showing that its possible to find a long term relationship =). He's a good man and he's just amazing in general! I know he likes to keep a low profile in terms of his personal life so hopefully now that that's out of the way the media can leave him and his boyfriend alone.

    Not a fan of big bang theory, but honestly, I got a strong gay vibe from him, that I just pushed aside, because I did not have any reason to believe it was true.

    But it is nice when an established, and beloved figure comes out, as it shows people on the fence that the person they may have admired or liked, even if only through the lense of them being a celebrity in a show, or band, or something else that they liked, is still the same person when you learn they are gay.

    That goes a long way in progressing gay equality and acceptence.

    I swear I saw an interview with him openly talking about being gay a long time ago. I'm surprised this was new. I have been watching this show knowing he was gay for a long time. I'm positive he has been open about this before.

    Anyway, yeah I like him and his character.

    Good for him. I've always liked him and had the suspicion he might have been gay. :slight_smile:

    Same. Everyone I know, knows. So I didn't think this would be news to so many people. Hes been photographed with his partner for years now. Oh well still good to see hes continuing to be open about it.
