The American actor Jesse Tyler Ferguson came out of the closet after his parents found out that he had stolen gay erotic magazines.
“Now I find it funny, but then it was extremely traumatizing”, says Tyler Ferguson Wednesday to People .
According to the 42-year-old Modern Family actor, his father found it very difficult to accept his nature. “That’s why I had stolen some heterosexual porn magazines so that they would distract him.”
The actor was around fourteen years old when he committed the shoplifting. “When I wanted to get out of the store, the alarm went off and the staff asked me if I had something with me, but I said no, but they asked again, and then, very embarrassingly, I showed what was under my shirt. ”
The actor was taken to an office of the store and the police and his parents also came. They then saw what their son had stolen exactly. “And then I came out of the closet in one way or another.”
Wedding
Since 2013 the actor is married to his friend, actor Justin Mikita (32). “My father was so hard with my mood, but he was very happy at my wedding.”
