Singer-actress Mandy Moore has revealed
that her mother and two brothers are gay.
Moore made the revelation in an
interview with Byrdie.
“I've never really talked about this,
but my parents are divorced,” Moore
said. “My mother left my father for a woman. And both of my
two brothers are gay.”
Moore, who currently stars on the NBC
comedy series This Is Us, added that she grew up in a loving
environment.
“My parents loved each other, they
did an incredible job raising all of us,” she said, adding that
“Everyone's so much happier, richer and more fulfilled being their
authentic selves.
In a 2009 interview with The
Advocate, Moore, 32, said that her older brother had married
his boyfriend during the brief time in California where gay and
lesbian couples could marry before passage of Proposition 8, the
state's voter-approved constitutional amendment which defined
marriage as a heterosexual union before it was struck down as
unconstitutional by a federal court in 2013.
