Colton Underwood Reveals Yep I’m Gay

With shades of Ellen DeGeneres’ coming out April 14th 1997 on the cover of TIME Magazine declaring “Yep I’m Gay” over 20 years ago former ABC’s "The Bachelor" star Colton Underwood came out as gay to Robin Roberts during a segment on Good Morning America this morning. Underwood stated to Roberts, "I've run from myself for a long time. I've hated myself for a long time. And I'm gay. And I came to terms with that earlier this year & have been processing it. And the next step in all of this was sort of letting people know…I'm still nervous, but yeah, it's been a journey for sure." The story was then covered & posted on all mainstream media news network outlets & then went totally viral in social media. Anthony Allen Ramos GLAAD's Head of Talent concluded, “Every LGBTQ person’s journey to discovering & accepting their authentic self is different & Colton Underwood’s decision to share his truth with the public reminds us that there is no set timeline for coming out. Given the large & loyal fandom who know Colton from 'The Bachelor,' his coming out & discussion of his faith will hopefully open eyes to the millions of out & proud LGBTQ people who are also people of faith.” Underwood further revealed that he’s known the truth of his sexuality since a young age knowing he "just felt different" from the age of 6 when he couldn't process it especially growing up Catholic. Colton Underwood is ready to live his truth & we commend him for taking this important step to live his life authentically. For More Info…
