Matt Bomer Officially Comes Out As Gay

Matt Bomer accepts an award at the 18th Annual Steve Chase Humanitarian Awards held at the Palm Springs Convention Center on Saturday (February 11) in Palm Springs, Calif.

The 34-year-old White Collar actor received the New Generation Arts & Activism award for his work with HIV/AIDS awareness.

At the ceremony, Matt publicly thanked his partner, Simon Halls (pictured), and their children on stage for the first time.

“I’d really especially like to thank my beautiful family: Simon, Kit, Walker, Henry,” Matt said. “Thank you for teaching me what unconditional love is. You will always be my proudest accomplishment.”
