Kevin Spacey says he felt 'attacked' by the gay community; actor reflects on years of being closeted
Hollywood actor Kevin Spacey has said that he felt that he was constantly on the radar of gay community . The actor said he always felt "attacked" by the gay community.
The ' House of Cards ' actor only went public about his sexuality in 2017 after being accused of sexual misconduct and thought he thought he had been "so clever" in keeping his attraction to men a secret for so many years, people were talking about him and he felt upset at the lack of understanding he experienced, reports 'Female First UK'.
Speaking to Bill Maher on the Club Random podcast, he said, "I was fiercely closeted. I didn't want anyone to know anything about me and of course I thought I was so clever that no one knew. There was so many stories about me. There was lots of talk about that I was gay and I just wasn't out and rather than the gay community understanding that...I always felt that I was being attacked".
While Kevin has always denied the allegations of sexual misconduct, in March he agreed to a settlement with three men who accused him of sexual assault before the case could go to trial.
As per 'Female First UK', the 66-year-old actor noted he had "hit on" a lot of guys but claimed a number of allegations about his behaviour had been "redesigned" or even "entirely made up".
