Is Joe Simpson Gay? Is He divorced?
Officials for the pair are disputing accusations that Joe Simpson revealed his sexual orientation to his family two months ago, and we should probably believe them given that the claims were initially published in the National Enquirer.
The following was printed in the paper from a source: “Joe gathered his family approximately two months ago and came out of the closet. He informed them that he’d tried to keep his marriage to Tina going, but he couldn’t do it any longer while denying his desires for guys.”
The formal divorce papers obtained by TMZ make no mention of Joe catching the gay. They state that “discord or conflict of personalities” or sexual inclinations have rendered the marriage unsupportable.
The couple’s spokesman issued the following statement: “There is no third party involved in this amicable breakup… All other charges are entirely false. The family appreciates your consideration for their privacy during this difficult time.”
