It is pretty clear that Aaron Hernandez was bisexual, but of course, he couldn’t speak or acknowledge that being an NFL player. His Ex-Girlfriend and Lawyer explained how it was killing him inside.
TMZ has the quotes.
Aaron’s college girlfriend, Alyssa Anderson, says she first learned Aaron had a relationship with a man while they were attending the University of Florida … but he denied it at the time. It was only years later that Hernandez cryptically acknowledged her suspicions were true.
George Leontire — an openly gay member of Hernandez’s defense team.
“This man clearly was gay,” Leontire said … “[He] acknowledged it. Acknowledged the immense pain that it caused him.”
Leontire added, “I think that he also came out of a culture that was so negative about gay people that he exhibited some self-hatred.”
Aaron was convicted of murdering Odin Lloyd in 2013 — and there are some law enforcement officials who believe Hernandez executed Lloyd because he knew about Hernandez’s sexuality.
This is all part of a Oxygen special about Hernandez that is airing Saturday March 17 and Sunday the 18th, so set your DVRs.
