Matt Bomer—the star of the USA series White Collar—officially came out of the closet, US Magazine reported.
Bomer, 34, did so at the Steve Chase Humanitarian Awards Feb. 11, where he was honored with the New Generation Arts and Activism Award for his work in the fight against HIV/AIDS.
“I’d really especially like to thank my beautiful family: Simon, Kit, Walker, Henry,” Bomer told the crowd. “Thank you for teaching me what unconditional love is. You will always be my proudest accomplishment.” Bomer’s partner is publicist Simon Halls, who also represents Glee co-creator Ryan Murphy and actor Neil Patrick Harris.
On the big screen, Bomer will next appear in the male-stripper movie Magic Mike with Matthew McConaughey and Channing Tatum.
