Colton Underwood’s shocking revelation about his sexuality makes him trend on Twitter
Former ‘The Bachelor‘ star Colton Underwood has come out as gay. He has opened up about his sexuality and told people that he is gay in the show ‘Good Morning America’.
The star is now trending on Twitter and has received huge support from his peers. The star told Roberts he “got into a place with my personal life that was dark, and bad,” adding “I got to a place where I didn’t think I was ever going to share this… I don’t, I would have rather died than say I’m gay. I think that was sort of my wake-up call.”
Underwood said he had run from and hated himself for a long time. “I’m gay. I came to terms with that earlier this year, and the next step in all of this was sort of letting people know. … I’m the happiest and healthiest I’ve ever been in my life. That means the world to me,” he said.
Following the interview, The Bachelor fraternity’s executive producers made a statement supporting the actor: “We are so inspired by Colton Underwood’s courage to embrace and pursue his authentic self. As firm believers in the power of love, we celebrate Colton’s journey in the LGBTQIA+ community every step of the way.”
Let’s take a look at the enormous amount of support Colton Underwood is receiving on Twitter:

Hey, just a reminder that if your response to Colton Underwood coming out is a condescending "We knew," you're scaring closeted people and dismissing what was almost certainly a hard journey. Be kind and non-snarky.
