The December 2018 Gay Times covers will hit stores in the UK on Friday, but you can pre-order here now.

 

 

Three of the four covers go to worthy subjects, including Jake Borelli, giving his first interview since coming out ...

More Jake HERE!

 

 

Borelli says he's received lots of messages from fans regarding his Grey's Anatomy scene with Dr. Nico Kim:

I’ve received so many messages, I can hardly read them all. I sat there for like four hours and some of them were heartbreaking, and some of them were filled with joy and excitement. It was beautiful to see how brave all of the fans were being with sharing their story. It truly felt like we were doing this together.

 

 
He also talks about his character's sexual orientation:

I think I, along with the rest of the audience, assumed Levi was straight. That was all the information we had, and that’s how I played him for the whole first year, just because I wasn’t
given any contradictory information.

I took a step back and I was like, “Okay, how do we shift the backstory that I’ve created for Levi, and make this make sense?” And I think we came up with something really beautiful and really exciting, and it’s a story I would’ve loved to have seen when I was younger. It’s a story that fits right into my own history, and it’s very close to me in some ways.

I realised that this was going to be way bigger than me and my own coming out

 

He seems like a sweet, thoughtful guy.
