Ian McKellen’s Greatest Regret…
…is not having told his mother he’s same-sex oriented before she died, he tells the Telegraph.
While speaking at a workshop about homophobic bullying, the Lord of the Rings star said:
Being gay was a topic that was never mentioned when I was your age. We had not really invented the word gay – at school I used to be called Oscar, after Oscar Wilde. If you were gay there was nowhere to go and no one to talk to, there was no other gay person as far as I knew. So to come back to school for the first time in 50 years and see this is heartening, to see that as a nation we have so rapidly grown up.
Sir Ian then described his step-mother’s reaction upon telling her when he was 49: “She said she had known for 40 years.”
Chill, Ian. She knew.
