Alan Cumming is tired of people talking about his sexual orientation.
In an interview with The Independent, “The Good Wife” actor discussed his autobiography “Not My Father’s Son: A Memoir.” In the book, Cumming does not often mention that he was married to a woman. Omitting those details has left some people questioning why.
“Some people have said about the book: ‘He doesn’t mention that he was first married to a woman and then married to a man,” Cumming told The Independent. “But that’s not what this book is about… it’s not about me being bisexual.”
Cumming, 50, was married to actress Hilary Lyon from 1985 to 1993. He has been married to his husband Grant Shaffer since 2007.
“I get a little tired of everything – if I was straight, you wouldn’t think that I should make references to the fact that I was straight, so it just feels a little bit double standard-y,” Cumming continued. “The whole bisexual thing keeps coming up, and I just think that, eventually, hopefully, we’ll all live in a world where we don’t talk about it as much and just get on with it.”
