Will & Grace Star, Eric McCormack, Addresses Long-Standing Rumors About His Sexuality
The Speculations Continue
Eric McCormack, best known for his role in the popular sitcom Will & Grace, has long been plagued by rumors about his sexuality. Despite being married for over 26 years, the actor has faced persistent speculation about his sexual orientation.
Not Alone in the Spotlight
McCormack is not the only celebrity who has dealt with intrusive questions about their personal life. Other stars like Hugh Jackman and Kenny Chesney have also faced similar speculation and scrutiny.
Will & Grace: Breaking Barriers
Will & Grace, a groundbreaking sitcom, was one of the first network shows to feature openly gay characters. While Sean Hayes, who played Jack, is openly gay in real life, McCormack is not. The actor has reflected on the show's decision to cast him as a gay character and is grateful that today's era embraces diversity and inclusivity.
On-Screen Romances Fuel the Rumors
In the series, McCormack's character, Will, had numerous relationships with men and ultimately ended up with McCoy Whitman, played by openly gay actor Matt Bomer. These storylines, combined with McCormack's off-screen support for same-sex marriage, only added fuel to the speculation surrounding his own sexuality.
McCormack's Playful Gesture
The rumors reached new heights when McCormack playfully kissed his Will & Grace co-star, Sean Hayes, during the show's reboot ribbon-cutting ceremony in 2017. With the return of the beloved character, Will Truman, the lines between fiction and reality blurred even further.
Only Time Will Tell
So, is Eric McCormack gay? Only he has the answer to that question, and it is up to him if and when he chooses to address it.
