The British actor, 51, casually mentioned his male partner and reflected on his coming out journey in separate interviews, revealing that he came out “to anybody who mattered” when he was a teenager.
Armitage, who has starred Netflix thrillers Obsession and Fool Me Once, as well as BBC dramas such as Spooks and Robin Hood, explained that he hadn’t previously discussed his sexuality publicly as he hadn’t wanted his personal life to overshadow his acting career.
He told Radio Times: “[Coming out] happened when I was 19 - to anybody who mattered - and I was always waiting for that question to punch me in the face, and it never did. I thought, ‘Are people being polite, or is it that they don’t want to know?’
“I don’t know that I ever wanted to put myself in front of the work I was doing, anything about my family or personal life. I just thought, ‘Let the work speak for itself’.”
