For Victor Garber, admitting his homosexuality to blogger Greg Hernandez was no big deal because he believes everyone already knows about his longtime partner, artist and model Rainer Andreessen.
"I don't really talk about it but everybody knows," the former Alias star said in an interview for Greg in Hollywood. "He's going to be out here with me for the SAG Awards."
Garber first spoke about Andreesen in an interview in April 2012. "My companion Rainer Andreesen and I have been together almost 13 years in Greenwich Village," he told Canada’s Forever Young. "We both love New York."
Garber, who recently starred in Ben Affleck’s Argo, is not the only celebrity to come out this week. In her acceptance speech for the lifetime achievement award at the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday, actress Jodie Foster finally spoke about her sexual orientation.
"While I'm here being all confessional, I guess I just have just a sudden urge to say something that I've never really been able to air in public. [It's] a declaration that I'm a little nervous about – but maybe not quite as nervous as my publicist right now. I'm just going to put it out there – loud and proud. I’m going to need your support. I am -- single!” Foster joked before turning serious.
"This is not going to be a big coming out speech tonight because I already did my coming out about a thousand years ago back in the stone age,” she said. “In those very quaint days when a fragile girl would open up to trusted friends and family and coworkers and then gradually proudly to everyone who knew her.”
“There is no way I could ever stand here without acknowledging one of the deepest loves of my life, my heroic co-parent, my ex-partner in love but righteous soul sister in life…Cydney Bernard,” added Foster. “I am so proud of our modern family. Our amazing sons, Charlie and Kit, who are my reason to breathe and to evolve, my blood and soul. And boys, in case you didn’t know it, this song, all of this, this song is for you.”
