The Glee actor is now judging in the brand new BBC talent show, The Greatest Dancer, but what else do we know about the award-winning TV star
Although Matthew Morrison is probably best known for his stint as Mr Schuester from the hit TV show, Glee, he is also a Broadway star and film star. He’s appeared in films such as Music and Lyrics, The Muppets and Underdogs.
Is Matthew Morrison gay, bisexual or straight
Of course, in 2019 these things really don’t or shouldn’t matter, but Matthew Morrison straight as far as we can tell. He’s married to a woman called Renee Puente. They were married in October 2014 on the island of Maui. They had their first child together in 2017. In October Renee had a baby boy who they named Revel James Makai.
Matthew has had his sexuality rumoured and speculated about many times. Being in the “gayest show on TV” Glee, didn’t squash any of those rumours, despite him playing a heterosexual character.
In 2013 he put the record straight in an interview with the Huffington Post. When he was asked whether the public misconception about him being gay “bothered him” he replied, “I know my own truth. I’m in a great relationship with a woman. Maybe before it used to bother me. Then I was like, “This is so stupid that this bothers me. Some of my best friends in the world are gay, and if this is bothering me, then that means I have an issue with that.” Once I figured that out for myself, I thought, “I don’t care what anyone thinks about me.”
He then made it clear that he was an ally for the gay community and was “very proud” of his role in the community.
