Victor Garber Confirms He's Gay

Actor Victor Garber, who played Jack Bristow on Alias and the shipbuilder Thomas Andrews in Titanic, confirmed this week what he thought people already knew.

Yes, he is gay.

"I don't really talk about it, but everybody knows," Garber, 63, told Greg Hernandez of the blog Greg in Hollywood, and was later confirmed by E!.

The actor, who has been nominated for six Emmy Awards, including three for Alias, has hardly kept it a secret.

In an interview last year with a magazine in his native Canada, Garber said: "My companion Rainer Andreesen and I have been together almost 13 years in Greenwich Village. We both love New York."

Andreesen, an artist and model, accompanied Garber to this year's Golden Globe Awards.

Garber also appears in Ben Affleck's Argo, and spoke to Hernandez about the joy of his connection to Affleck and his wife Jennifer Garner, who costarred on Alias.

"It's such a gratification ... to see him emerge now as one of the great directors," Garber says. "And the fact that people love the movie so much means the world."

I had no clue either. I love that there are so many openly gay people out there now. I hope someday it will just be part of life instead of something that needs to be announced.

"Indigo pants seem more fully realized when Rainer Andreesen wears them. Suits look better than they do on a Ken doll. Rainer Andreesen wears a blazer with no shirt underneath it and you're like "Yes, that's correct."

LOL!!!Chat Icon

I'm not surprised. I was really into Alias way back when and on chat boards it was discussed as a given, even though it was unconfirmed.

I love that he's still close with Jen and Ben. IIRC he was the one who performed their marriage ceremony.

I was finally able to get on and read this- the comments are awesome.

If I ever had any doubts that Victor Garber was gay, they were erased the night several years ago when I saw him strolling around the Meatpacking District with a group of men, singing show tunes*. *(I'm not trying awkwardly to be funny. This is just an actual thing that happened.)

Sydney Bristow was upset at first, but she's come to terms with it after it was explained using a Rambaldi artifact.

If your wife ended up being a homicidal double agent you would have issues with women too.
