You are correct. He "married" actor Sir Anthony Sher in 2005.
Have you seen that new tv show, "Will"? I attempted to watch it. Didn't get very far with it what with all the down right filthy gay crap. Hope it gets pulled. Horrible show.

William Shakespeare may have been gay, the artistic director the Royal Shakespeare Company has suggested, and directors can no longer hide the sexuality of his homosexual characters.

Or not and possibly didn’t exist at all.
Shakespeare insult 17: The Merry Wives of Windsor (Act 3, Scene 5)
“The rankest compound of villainous smell that ever offended nostril”
Yeah and he was probably a tranny black woman too....
He wrote a few plays where women disguised themselves by dressing as men.
These occurred in comedies, meaning, he and the audience of the time found this funny.
So making fun of cross dressers doesn’t seem like a gay guy to me.
The article is just another attempt to normalize gaydom. They probably won’t stop until there’s a gay history month.
Pure fantasy. The left lives in a fantasy world that has nothing to do with reality.
My thought also....this again...
He MAY have been an alien from another planet.
He MAY have been the bastard son of the king of Siam.
He MAY have been an American Indian in disguise.
But this so-called artistic director is obviously a self promoting asshole.
I didn’t know that Shakespeare knew William Clinton.
Just look at “A Midsummer Night's Dream”, it's just dripping with fairies. Lear? Old boyfriend. Macbeth? His old cabin ‘mate’ at Summer camp. Et tu Brute? Yes, even Brutus (his tailor). Shylock? His manservant. Every play, every male character. Prancing? He invented it. Men's tights? His viagra. He gave up on women at a very young age because they “doth protest too much.”
It's all very well documented by CNN.
SONNET 27 Weary with toil, I haste me to my bed,
The dear repose for limbs with travel tired;
But then begins a journey in my head,
To work my mind, when body's work's expired:
For then my thoughts (from far where I abide)
Intend a zealous pilgrimage to thee,
And keep my drooping eyelids open wide,
Looking on darkness which the blind do see:
Save that my soul's imaginary sight
Presents thy shadow to my sightless view,
Which, like a jewel hung in ghastly night,
Makes black night beauteous and her old face new.
Lo, thus, by day my limbs, by night my mind,
For thee, and for myself, no quiet find.
On the other hand, I see no other interpretation for the beautiful Sonnet 33 than grief for his dead, beloved son Hamnet and a comparison with Heaven's Sun/Son, Jesus Christ, in a magnificent poem in many layers of meaning:
Sonnet 33 Full many a glorious morning have I seen
Flatter the mountain-tops with sovereign eye,
Kissing with golden face the meadows green,
Gilding pale streams with heavenly alchemy;
Anon permit the basest clouds to ride
With ugly rack on his celestial face
And from the forlorn world his visage hide,
Stealing unseen to west with this disgrace.
Even so my sun one early morn did shine
With all-triumphant splendour on my brow;
But out, alack! he was but one hour mine;
The region cloud hath mask'd him from me now.
Yet him for this my love no whit disdaineth;
Suns of the world may stain when heaven's sun staineth.
He gave up on women at a very young age because they “doth protest too much.
but so do homos

Lying politicians, corrupt government workers and fake msm stories go back for ages.
Shakespeare’s creativity, wit and command of the English language: 99.99999999% of who he was.
Important of his homosexuality, assuming he was a homosexual:

The latest intellectual fad - rewriting history, and historical biographies based not on any evidence history provides, but attempting to be in tune with what the writer sees in modern sentiments. It’s guess work that should not be celebrated.
The LGTB issue is like the rest of the “diversity” issue - you cannot accept a historical person, or current major person, or career field unless you can see a “face like yours” there.
So does it really require Shakespeare to be “gay”, or secretly a “mixed race” person in order for a “LGTB” or “minority” person to truly appreciate his work? To the “diversity” agenda the answer is yes.
The diversity agenda is not Martin Luther Kings dream of a world where we judge someone by the content of their character and not the “color of their skin”. The diversity agenda is preached to every “non-White”, not heterosexual person as “how many ways can we hate old ‘white’ men”, NOT by the content of their character, but because of the color of their skin.
And when some “white” historical person has such an obvious admirable character, their biography must be revised in order to be either not so “white” or not so “normal”. They must look like something a “minority” or “LGBT” person can “identify” with.
Identity politics is NOT about the individual, it is about the group, and slotting everyone into groups and herding into the idea that they must think & agree like a group. It says to the persons it is directed at that they cannot really admire someone for the content of their character, nor strive to be like that person, unless it is someone who “looks like them”. It is a politics of envy and hate.
It is simply a part of the sodomite lifestyle to construct the lies to support their disgusting, disease-ridden behavior.
Eleanor had her own mistress in the White House, as per a PBS documentary.
Yeah, I believe it.
And Jack Dempsey, Babe Ruth, Wilt Chamberlain, Donald Duck, Archie Bunker, Daniel Boone, Davey Crockett, Robert E. Lee, Ulysses S. Grant, Sgt. York, Audie Murphy, Romeo and Juliet, Sherlock Holmes, Matt Dillon, Little Joe Cartwright, Roy Rogers, Gordie Howe and the Boston Celtics were all gay.
At that time women were not allowed on stage so women characters were portrayed by men.
Any famous person who never married is automatically considered by the fags to be one of “them”, even when they were not.
