In 2017, he sparked quite a controversy with his statement, "I am a gay man right now just without the physical act – that's all." Does he not exclude a relationship with another man? On the occasion of the actor's 41st birthday, we decided to look into his love life.
Andrew Garfield gained enormous recognition as Peter Parker in the Spider-Man movies. Since then, the media has regularly reported on his alleged relationships.
Does Andrew Garfield not exclude a relationship with a man?
It all started in 2017 when Andrew Garfield appeared in the adaptation of Tony Kushner's play "Angels in America," in which he played a gay man. During its promotion, he made a rather unexpected confession.
"My only time off during rehearsals – every Sunday I would have eight friends over and we would just watch Ru. I mean every single series of RuPaul’s Drag Race. I mean every series. This is my life outside of this play. I am a gay man right now just without the physical act – that’s all," he confessed at one of the press conferences.
This caused a huge controversy among both his fans and the LGBT+ community. The actor quickly clarified his statement, putting an end to any speculation about his orientation.
"As far as I know, I am not a gay man. Maybe I’ll have an awakening later in my life, which I’m sure will be wonderful and I’ll get to explore that part of the garden, but right now I’m secluded to my area, which is wonderful as well," he noted.
Andrew Garfield's relationships
Andrew Garfield rarely speaks to the media about his private life. He avoids the spotlight on a daily basis and does not attend industry events. However, it is known that years ago, he was in a relationship with Emma Stone.
The couple met on the set of "The Amazing Spider-Man." According to many, there was an instant connection between them. The two of them also spoke about it in interviews.
Unfortunately, their feelings did not withstand the test of time. However, the couple remained on friendly terms.
In 2021, much was said about his relationship with model Alyssa Miller. However, the couple broke up less than a year later. Who is the actor currently dating? According to "People" magazine, in March 2024, paparazzi caught him on a date with psychic Kate Tomas. Neither of them, however, has commented on this relationship in the media.
