“Harold and Kumar” star Kal Penn comes out publicly as a gay man and reveals he’s engaged
Actor Kal Penn as been in a relationship with his partner Josh for 11 years and the couple is engaged.
Who knew?
In his new book You Can’t Be Serious, the actor shares the story of how he and Josh met and fell in love when Penn was living in Washington D.C..
He tells People mag: “I’ve always been very public with everybody I’ve personally interacted with. Whether it’s somebody that I meet at a bar, if Josh and I are out or we’re talking to friends,” Penn says. “I’m really excited to share our relationship with readers. But Josh, my partner, my parents, and my brother, four people who I’m closest to in the family, are fairly quiet. They don’t love attention and shy away from the limelight.”

FAEN says:
This means a lot to me personally. I was born in Bombay and as a gay kid I knew no one who was out. I’m thrilled to see more Indian Asians live out and proud.
Richard Vestal says:
I just love him skin color, yum.
Kal is really a funny man, not an easy thing. Politics I like, he got involved, not everyone can say that. Well rounded person, love him.
