Jessica Gunning, the dazzling star of Baby Reindeer, has pranced out of the closet in a flamboyant spectacle worthy of a Broadway show!
Picture this: The 38-year-old actress, who’s been lighting up our screens and our hearts, just dropped the juiciest tidbit in a recent tell-all. Even though she technically pranced into the rainbow spotlight back in late 2022, this is the first time she’s spilled the beans publicly. And oh, what delicious beans they are! She catapulted into fame this past Spring with Netflix’s Baby Reindeer, where she played Martha, the yin to Richard Gadd’s yang as Donny.
In a fabulously candid chat on the “Reign with Josh Smith” podcast, Jessica revealed, “I came out actually in November 2022 and that was a mega, mega thing for me. I’m surrounded by gays, all my friends are gay and so it wasn’t that I was repressing anything.”
Translation: She’s been living in a rainbow wonderland all along! She continued, “It was just that I didn’t think I could be, and I still can’t articulate it in the best way. But yeah, I realized I was a big old gay, and I was like, ‘that’s what it’s been. That’s what it is.’”
Jessica Gunning is officially on Team Fabulous, and we couldn’t be more thrilled! Now, if you’ll excuse us, we’re off to celebrate with some glitter and confetti!
