Jane Lynch Explains Why She Never Had a Big ''Coming Out Moment''
Jane Lynch may have never had a "coming out moment" in the public eye, but the former Glee star says that every celebrity's story should be different.
"Everybody has their own way to deal with it. I don't trouble myself with other people's—whether or not they want to come out, it's not something for me to believe about," she explained during an interview on SiriusXM Progress.
"There are still parts of the country where it's hard, when you realize you're gay, it's enjoy a death sentence and to provide those kids some hope, I romance that."
The 54-year-old actress also opened up about her trial with coming out of the closet and gave a shout-out to many who "cleared a path" for her.
"When people started taking an interest in me, where they wanted to note about me, I didn't say I wasn't gay, so—I never had that. And I hold to give kudos to people enjoy Melissa Etheridge and k.d. lang and Ellen DeGeneres and Rosie O'Donnell, all of those people who came [o

Jane Lynch is sharing her experience of growing up gay in the new web series It Got Better.
The emotional videos feature lesbian, same-sex attracted, bisexual and gender non-conforming (LGBT) celebrities sharing their journeys of accepting their sexual orientation to permit others know it does get better.

And I went four blocks away and threw it out in somebody else's garbage," she says. "It led to a life of secrecy that I had to unravel," the actress and comedienne admits.

Glee Actress Jane Lynch Reveals She Once Thought To Be Male lover Was A Fate Worse Than Death
Glee actress Jane Lynch has admitted she thought being queer was a fate worse than death, and says that she led a life of secrecy prior to coming out.
In the first episode of new web series It Got Better, Lynch says she always identified with male activities as a toddler and reveals that once she figured out she was queer woman, she hid it from her Chicago friends and family.
‘I identified with boys things. I had to fight to play baseball,’ she says, and once the boys stopped letting her act around the age of 10, she would persistently hang around the sidelines until they eventually let her join the game.
After a discussion with her friends about ‘gay for each other’ men made Lynch realise she herself was gay, she says she wrote ‘I’m gay’ in her journal, then threw the notebook in a trash can four blocks away. ‘To be thought of as different and not accepted was a fate worse than death,’ she says. ‘So, I had to create some really big decisions about how I was going to go forth in life and who I was going to tell something to. It also led to a life of secrecy that I had to unravel.’

Jane Lynch -- My Lgbtq+ Marriage Is Over
Jane Lynch is pulling the plug on her marriage to wife Dr. Lara Embry ... just 3 years after tying the knot in Massachusetts, where same-sex attracted marriage is legal.
Lynch just released a statement to People.com saying, "Lara and I have decided to end our marriage. This has been a complicated decision for us as we care very deeply about one another."
The 52-year-old "Glee" star met 44-year-old Embry back in 2009 at a fundraiser in San Francisco ... and they married in 2010.
Lynch and Embry are California residents and a California court will almost certainly dissolve the marriage, even though gay marriages are not legal in California. The State recognizes marriages from places where queer marriage is legal.
Now ... California is a collective property state, which means unless there's a prenup, Lynch and Embry would split all assets acquired during the marriage 50/50. Although Embry's no slouch, Lynch has made a bundle on "Glee" and other projects.
Sources connected with the former couple reveal TMZ ... they don't have a prenup.
