It’s no big deal for him or for us. He’s still the Will that we all know and love. I think it was really brave for him to come out to everyone.” Meanwhile, Will made his first appearance since coming out yesterday where he announced from outside his home that he would perform at G.A.Y. – the country’s top gay nightclub.
