Bob Harper, one of the weigh loss coaches on NBC's
The Biggest Loser,
came out of the closet recently:
I haven’t talked about my sexuality on this show ever. And now, meeting Bobby, I really do believe this is the right time. I want to show Bobby that he doesn’t have to live in shame. When I came out, when I was 17 years old, it was one of those things where I realized that there was going to be so many obstacles, but being gay doesn’t mean being weak. And being gay doesn’t mean that you are less than anybody else. It’s just who you are.
I seriously thought that Harper was out before now.
