Just my opinion.....
there are a lot of people who seem triggered by the comments on here, possibly because they’ve had difficulties coming out themselves and they’ve taken this situation and the discussion around it to heart.
I've commented on here that I think he’s done it as damage control, that doesn’t make me homophobic it makes me cynical!!

and just like that, he’s the golden boy again.
it worked in his favor whatever his reasons were to come out today!!
