AceShowbiz - Colton Haynes revealed quite a shocking secret about himself. The former "Teen Wolf" star said that he lost his virginity to "a girl and a guy" in an interview with Andy Cohen on SiriusXM radio show on Monday, June 12.
Colton shared that both the girl and guy were older than him. "I lost my virginity at 13 to a girl and a guy," he confessed. "I've never said that before. The girl was two years older than me, and the guy was, I would say, around 16. It was a real first time. It was exciting."
The "Arrow" alum clarified that it wasn't a threesome, but said that "everyone participated." When Andy asked whether he's had a threesome before, he simply answered, "We've all had them, but it wasn't that time [the first time he had sex]."
Besides talking his first sexual encounter, Colton opened up about the struggle of being a gay actor in Hollywood. "I was literally told from the day I moved to Los Angeles that I could not be gay because I wouldn't work," he shared. "[My management team] tried to set me up with girls. I was rumored to date Lauren Conrad for six months."
The "Rough Night" actor further revealed that he suffered from anxiety after becoming an actor. "I struggled with anxiety. I had to go to anxiety rehab. I literally couldn't go to work because I would faint or I would start sweating," he said. "I became agoraphobic. And it really was hard. I lost 150lbs, which I wish I didn't."
The reason behind Colton's mental health struggle was the fact that he had to hide his true self. "I was so tired of not being myself, having to lower my voice for certain things and having to not dress the way I wanted to dress," he shared, before adding, " And it was really life-changing when I came out."
Colton publicly came out as gay in May 2016 and is now engaged to florist Jeff Leatham.
