The Chase's Paul Sinha reveals the cruel way his mum learnt he was gay with devastating 4-word statement
ok.co.ukThe Chase’s Paul Sinha has spoken out about how his mother discovered he was gay, and how his chance to tell her himself was taken away from him thanks to a friend who drunkenly outed him one night.
Speaking to Loose Women panellists Kaye Adams, Frankie Bridge, Brenda Edwards and Kelle Bryan on Thursday 27 June, Paul explained how a prank led to his mum finding out he was gay. “Coming out to my mum was an interesting process,” he said. “Somebody at a house party we were hosting had a few too many drinks, rang up my number and went ‘your son is gay’ and put the phone down.” “It was not how I wanted her to find out,” he explained. “I thought it’d be more organic and sweet.
It was difficult to have the agency of a decision taken away from you.” He also revealed he still isn’t sure who made the phone call to his mum. “We’re going to have a poll, I’ll give you a list of all the friends it could have been,” he joked.
Paul, who is known to fans of The Chase and Beat the Chasers as The Sinnerman, has been open about his sexuality since being in the public eye.The 54 year old quizzer is married to Oliver Levy, a trained medical doctor and GP.The couple got engaged in 2019, and Paul revealed on Loose Women that he proposed to Oliver. “It was over Christmas, I was drunk,” he said. “I had a drunken epiphany that I wanted him to be part of my family officially rather than just unofficially.
