Zachary Quinto plays 'Spock' in the new movies. Here's the Wikipedia entry on his personal life:

Personal life[edit]

Quinto publicly came out as gay in October 2011.[31] He explained that, after the suicide of gay teenager Jamey Rodemeyer, he realized "that living a gay life without publicly acknowledging it is simply not enough to make any significant contribution to the immense work that lies ahead on the road to complete equality."[32]

Prior to his coming out, Quinto had long been an active supporter of gay rights and organizations, for instance the Trevor Project.[33] In 2009, he appeared in the one-night production Standing on Ceremony: The Gay Marriage Plays, a benefit stage reading in response to the passing of Proposition 8,[34] as well as in the play The Laramie Project: 10 Years Later, about the 1998 murder of Matthew Shepard.[35] In 2010, Quinto contributed a video to the It Gets Better Project, an Internet-based campaign that aims to prevent suicide among LGBT youth.[32] In 2012 Quinto campaigned on behalf of Barack Obama, including appearing in the video Obama Pride: LGBT Americans For Obama.[36]

Since 2010, Quinto was rumored to be dating actor Jonathan Groff. In September 2012, Quinto confirmed that he and Groff were in a relationship.[37] In July 2013, it was reported that the two had broken up.[38]
