Danielle Staub, one-fifth of the cast
of “bi”
cable network Bravo's The Real Housewives of New Jersey,
won't comment on her relationship with openly lesbian singer Lori
Michaels.
Staub, a divorced mother of two, has
previously hinted that she might be gay.
“Hellen Keller can see … what Lori
and I are to each other,” Staub
coyly told gay glossy Out, then quickly slipped back into
her closet.
“I don't feel it's necessary for me
to have to confirm it or deny it,” the 48-year-old added. “I'm a
public figure, and it doesn't mean that people have to get inside of
that right now. When I'm ready to talk about it, it will be my
decision.”
Staub, the resident villain on the hit
reality show, then promised she would seek out the gay magazine when
she's ready to clear the air.
“I'm not going to be forced because
I'm a public figure to speak about my private life any further,”
she said. “When I'm ready, how about I come to you and let you
know?”
Staub is a staunch supporter of gay
rights.
