We don’t know that his wife hasn’t known about it for years and was quite comfortable with their situation though. He may have been upfront with her years ago for all we know, he hasn’t given a timeframe (and nor should he have to) of when he came out to his family - I have every sympathy for her if she was blindsided by it but we don’t know she was so to say she has ‘wasted’ 27 years (as one poster has suggested) is unfair on them all imo...plus 2 daughters have come out of it and for that alone I am sure she doesn’t class it as a ‘waste’!
As for the timing, it could be as simple as he has been struggling mentally with not being openly ‘out’ and has been taking it out on people (no excuse but he’s only human) and their complaints have made him realise he needed to let it all out...it’s not so hard to believe
