'Playboy Club' star Sean Maher opens up about his sexuality: 'This is my coming out ball'

Firefly alum and Playboy Club actor Sean Maher has worked steadily in Hollywood for 14 years, and during that time, he made the choice to be closeted about his personal life as a gay man — until now.

For the first time, Maher opens up about his sexuality in an exclusive interview with Entertainment Weekly. “I was nervous coming here today because I’ve just never talked about it,” Maher says, while sitting down to chat at Little Dom’s Italian bistro in Los Angeles’ trendy Los Feliz neighborhood, the area where the actor lives with Paul, his partner of nearly nine years, and their two children, Sophia Rose, 4, and Liam Xavier, 14 months. “But, it’s so liberating. It was interesting to be coming to have a conversation that I was always afraid to have.” Despite his trepidation, he adds with a big smile: “This is my coming out ball. I’ve been dying to do this.”

Wow.

Did anyone not know that before?

Also, it's too bad Sean got himself on a show that a) sucks and b) is about to be cancelled. Hope he does better with the next round.
 
There aren't enough happy people in the world. He's setting an example for the rest of us.
 
About time!

That said ... Good for him. And his partner is one lucky bastard.
 
In seriousness, congrats to Sean for finally finding himself and being comfortable with who he is and open about it.

Yay! He's so damn cute!!!! :D

I meant, *cough* good for him. :shifty:
 
Huh. Well...he never set off my gaydar...so I suppose that is one more testament to his acting abilities, though admittedly, mine isn't that good.

I thought he was great on Firefly/Serenity.
