The United States has never been the most accepting place for gay people. While some states support gay marriage, many still don’t. Many people, even today, are scared to come out. Things were a lot worse in past. Many gay celebrities who are out now had a lot of difficulty coming out in the past. Some of them were so scared to come out that they married a person of the opposite sex in an effort to camouflage their homosexuality. While all of these 7 celebrities are out now, all of them at a one point were in straight marriages, despite being attracted to people who were of the same sex.
7. Anne Heche
Anne Heche is best known for her relationship with Ellen Degeneres; however, before these two got involved, she had only dated men. When her relationship with the now famous talk show host ended, Heche moved onto a man she had met while she was still involved with Degeneres, Coley Laffoon. These two quickly married and had a child, Homer. Once that relationship soured, Heche hooked up with another man, actor James Tucker, who she is still with. According to her, she changed her mind about being gay and “closed that door.”
