El actor de Hollywood y ex-estrella de Disney, Garrett Clayton, salió del clóset como gay en una publicación bastante emotiva de Instagram, en donde habla del bullying que él y su pareja sufrieron durante la preparatoria.

El actor de 27 años, comenzó su carrera en la serie de Disney, Teen Beach Movie, en donde actuó al lado de Ross Lynch, fue en el 2016 cuando Garrett dejó su imagen Disney por estelarizar la biografía de una ex-estrella porno gay en King Cobra. La cinta narra la historia de cómo dos actores/productores porno asesinaron a su rival esperando poder quitarle a su gran estrella: Brent Corrigan.

With the release of my new movie REACH coming up, I thought it was important to explain why I took on this project in the first place. REACH deals with some very serious and timely topics that have affected me personally, and have likely influenced many of your lives as well. (I also prefer to share things that are particularly important for me here on my IG) instead of in some random magazine or online article – because you are the ones that have been rooting for me and following me on my professional and personal journey in life. When I read the script for REACH, I immediately knew it was a film I had to be a part of. I have personally dealt with suicide within my own family, intense bullying in high school, and – on top of it all – myself and the man I’ve been in a relationship with for a long time (@hrhblakeknight) have both experienced shootings within our hometown school systems, and have witnessed the heartache that takes place in affected communities after such tragic events. These topics – not always easy to discuss- are all close to my heart, and, knowing how serious they are, I wanted to share this with you all. This film has come from the perspectives of people who care deeply about these issues, and if watching it helps even one person… then it was all worth it. ♥️

Durante los años y obviamente debido a este personaje, se le había preguntado a Garrett sobre su orientación sexual, a lo que siempre había contestado que no era “asunto de nadie“.

Clayton utilizó Instagram para anunciar el estreno de su nueva cinta, Reach, en donde interpreta a un adolescente que planea suicidarse, y consideró era el momento oportuno para decirle al mundo que es gay, y presentar a su pareja de años.
