Matt Bomer has been through a number of challenges throughout his journey to coming out of the closet, including a producer who once told him that he would not be able to land lead roles if he publicly comes out. I don’t think I could have done it if I hadn’t worked on all the projects leading up to it,” Bomer told The New York Times. In 2011, a still closeted Bomer married publicist Simon Halls, and he finally decided to publicly come out in 2012 while receiving a humanitarian award. At the time, his TV series ‘White Collar’ was still airing and the first ‘Magic Mike’ film was set to premiere. Love is more important to me than anything that being my true self cost me,” Bomer expressed.
