Former Glee star Kevin McHale is getting something off his chest: he’s gay.
According to People, McHale, who portrayed Artie Abrams on the hit show, is opening up about his sexuality after much speculation.
He sparked the interest of many after posting a photo cuddling with actor Austin McKenzie a few weeks ago. While he says he was never trying to hide it, he admits he “wasn’t obviously shouting it from the mountaintops.”
He also explained:
“If somebody was a big fan and following everything I was doing [on social media], like the people I interact with on Twitter on a daily basis, I think there was zero surprise. People knew.”
He continued on to say:
“The organizations I’ve been supporting and all that sort of work has been apparent, at least to me. I’ve always supported LGBT organizations and things like that because I felt like I had a vested interest in this where I wanted to help out.”

“#NoTearsLeftToCry is gayer than me and I ACCEPT. Ty @ArianaGrande”
