Will & Grace star Sean Hayes has confirmed that he is gay.
The actor who played Jack on the successful comedy for eight years added that he was, “never in the closet.”
Hayes has received much criticism in the past for not declaring his sexuality.
He told the Advocate, “I never have had a problem saying who I am. I am who I am. I was never in, as they say. Never."
The Actor rebutted the criticism he had received from the Advocate saying that he feels like he’s contributed a lot to the gay community.
“Why would you go down that path with somebody who’s done so much to contribute to the gay community?,” he said.
“That was my beef about it. What more do you want me to do? Do you want me to stand on a float? And then what? It’s never enough."
Hayes confirmed that he is in a happy relationship and that is all he will reveal.
