Paul Sinha, a British-Asian comedian, broadcaster, and quiz show host, didn’t let fear hold him back when he finally revealed his sexual orientation in 2017—in fact, he admitted that he never hid it!
On one of the episodes of the British quiz show The Chase, the ITV quizzer made a jaw-dropping announcement that made his fans shake with surprise. The revelation came when show host Bradley Walsh posed a question to him.
Paul guessed incorrectly that the answer was ‘Grand Theft Auto’—only to explain why he got the question wrong. He explained the situation by saying,
My ex used to spend all of his time playing Mario Kart… he also claimed that I never paid attention to him.
Following his statement, the Twitter account was inundated with comments from fans seeking clarification on Paul’s revelation. Surprised by the reaction, Paul explained that he had never concealed his sexual orientation from the public.
Relationship Status: Single?
After coming out in 2017, Paul expressed hidden feelings in one of the most personal interviews, revealing that he was in a relationship with his boyfriend.
According to The Sun, Sinha enlightened the benefit of being gay in that there is no traditional template for how to engage with a same-sex partner.
He also stated that he was in an open relationship with his partner and opposed speaking any further.
Speaking further about his sexual revelation, Paul claimed that he made numerous references to being gay during his lengthy stint on The Chase, but none of his words made it into the editing room.
In addition to revealing the identity of his mysterious boyfriend in public, Paul was seen wishing him a happy Valentine’s Day.
On 14 February 2018, Paul sarcastically thanked his boyfriend for buying him an expensive ‘Blondie memorabilia’ as a Valentine’s gift in a tweet.
After keeping his partner’s identity hidden for many years, Paul happened to reveal his partner’s name as Oliver in one of his Pink News interviews.
The name was obviously important to Paul’s fans and followers, but a greater revelation was on the way that they were unaware of.
Paul revealed at the start of 2019 that he proposed to his boyfriend and received a “Yes” in response.
The publicity resulted in a flood of congratulatory messages for Paul.
Without a doubt, the man will not refrain from telling his partner about his other life experiences.
