Will and Grace Star Confirms He’s Gay
Sean Hayes, who played flamboyant Jack McFarland on NBC’s Will and Grace for eight years, has publicly confirmed his sexuality for the first time.
The resolutely private actor recently gave his first interview to gay newsmagazine The Advocate after many denied requests.
The Advocate and other media had long criticized Hayes, 39, for not confirming what many have called the “open secret” of his sexual orientation.
I never have had a problem saying who I am,” Hayes says in the new cover story.
“I am who I am. I was never in, as they say. Never,” he states.
