10 stars who married gay partners and didn’t know it (With Pics)

7. Vanessa Redgrave

Actress Vanessa Redgrave, must have been shocked to learn that her famous well respected husband and father of her two daughters was gay. Director Tony Richardson came out as bisexual in 1985, after he was diagnosed with HIV. The couple was married from 1962-1967. Although many of his friends assumed he was gay, he would never confirm it, and he reportedly swept Redgrave off of her feet. Redgrave is unfortunately very familiar with having to deal with a fleeting husband, as her father was also a gay man who repeatedly cheated on her mother and eventually moved his lover into their family home.
