Trevor Donovan's gay character on the
CW's 90210 is preparing for romance with his new beau, played by Freddie
Smith.
Donovan, who plays all-American jock
Teddy Montgomery on the nighttime teenage drama, recently
talked to TV Guide Magazine on where his character's love
life is headed this season.
“Teddy has some revelations and
such,” Donovan said. “He used to be such a womanizer and player
and he starts to carry that over into this gay life.”
Teddy recently met Marco, played by
Smith, but according to Donovan their romance will be slow to take
off.
“[Teddy] realizes that he doesn't
know what he wants anymore, so he finds himself in a nice stable
relationship, a nice, slow, progressive relationship that goes into
the end of the season. So there is a rift, a realization, and then a
rendezvous,” he added.
Teddy's coming out storyline began
early in the third season. In an early episode, we see Teddy
throwing-up the morning after he had a date with former boyfriend
Ian, played by Canadian pop singer Kyle Riabko.
