Tab Hunter had a relationship with Anthony Perkins. It was more than a crush. It's in his book and documentary!

[@andrewmiller4885]

I knew he was gay, and I didn't like him. When I saw a fairly lengthy interview of him some years back, I had to change my mind and my appalling judgement of him. He was the nicest, most sensitive, and sincere human being, one could have sat and listened to. Tab Hunter was smart, articulate, caring and gracious in every way. He came over as a polished and refined gentleman, oozing class and dignity. I used to think that homosexual men were all sleaze, wanting endless sex with endless partners. I learnt my lesson after that evening, listening to him in that interview. Never condemn people because they are different, and get to know the human entity they are. You may well acquire valuable and dear friends. Thank you so much for this video .

I remember watching Confidential on a plane and i was stuck by a couple of things. One, he really was very good looking in a non-made up way - you wouldn't think there was an increible amount of 'work' that went into the look, unlike some of today's stars. Two, he seemed to have lived a fairly charmed life, even with the social stigma attached to being gay in the 50s & 60s. Three, he also seemed like an appealing personality - one who you'd feel fortunate to have as a friend. 87 years - good run: whether he was ready or not, he was probably pretty satisfied with his life, loves and adventures.

[@susiekilbyburke4303]

He did not have a charmed life in the beginning. My grandfather abandoned him and my father when they were young. The were fairly poor as a result. My grandmother was a tough and demanding, scary, woman. He was super close to his only sibling, his brother,/my father, Walt, who died at just 35. That devastated Tab. Tab was very hard working, and he created an amazing life for himself. Tab was an amazing skier, equestrian, ice skater, actor, and so much more! Most importantly, he was a person who cared about others.

[@t.wilson9432]

Tab had more than a "crush" on Perkins...they were together for quite some time...

[@ianevans2917]

Just finished reading Tab Hunter - Confidential. It was an excellent read and left me with a very strong sense that this man was a man that could be trusted; that he was honest and extremely likeable. Oh, did I say that he was also insanely good looking 😁

[@arthursteven5601]

He seemed a really nice kind hearted man

[@grantfarkas2715]

I once saw Tab Hunter in a Chicago bar in the early 1980s he was there during the time he was promoting the John Waters film with Divine. Couldn't help but notice how handsome he still was in his white shorts and plaid shirt. RIP Tab Hunter

[@keltus_warrior6491]

Hunter was 13 years older than I. Even at my young age, not yet understanding fully my adoring him, he was a heart throb.

[@nightstalkerck]

Do your homework, Tab and Anthony Perkins had a sexual relationship.

[@lft3636]

yes, and it went on for 2 years, I think.

[@hubraden]

Tab - taught Tony Perkins how to drive in Los Angeles…Perkins was working at Paramount Pictures…Hunter was at Warner Brothers in Burbank… TAB was the first movie star to own/drive a 1955 FORD THUNDERBIRD…NATALIE WOOD followed…Tab helped TONY PERKINS to buy a Thunderbird…. And to\ teach him out to drive his new ‘T-BIRD…!

[@tjittekamminga5170]

as a teenager boy I already adored Tab Hunter and Rock Hudson, may they live on forever (RIP)

[@jerrydtuff]

D.E.W. .... TAB HUNTER WAS LIKED BY PEOPLE OF HIS AGE RANGE, 20YRS. TO 40YRS. I LOVED SEEING HIM IN MOVIES. HE WAS A HANDSOME MAN ON AND OFF SCREEN. HIS FANS WILL MISS HIM. HE DIED ABOUT THE SAME AS MY HUSBAND. WE LOVED HIM FROM THE '60S & '70s. I PRAY HE LIVES AN ETERNITY ✨️WITH OUR LORD ✨️. I WILL MISS HIM. . ..... ..... ❤ .... ...... . .

[@FactsVerse]

Thank you so much for sharing your message to Tab. We miss him. May he find peace 🙏🙏

[@Scottie404]

I saw him up close while he performed in a play (in the round - I was about 6 feet from him) at a Dinner Playhouse. He was indeed a handsome man, even in his late middle age.

[@ccastaneda669]

He always had a great reputation that I remember. I never heard of anyone ever speaking bad about him, either the public or the press. I never knew that he was gay, but that really doesn't make a difference. Who care if he was, at the end of the day he was a good person with a good heart. I didn't know that he had a comic book. I really don't remember many of his films. The only film I can remember is the one with Sophia Loren, call "That Kind of Woman". Who can forget Sophia Loren she is a natural beauty and attracted man for decades. RIP: Tab Hunter, born Arthur Andrew Kelm; July 11, 1931 - July 8, 2018, age 86 ✝️

[@christopherboada7921]

I read his autobiography. He and Tony Perkins were emotionally and physically involved. According to Tab, the relationship broke because Tony was too nervous about being discovered to be gay, dooming his young career.

[@eugeniasyro5774]

He was a sweet and very kind man.

[@henrikechers9995]

He and Tony Perkins were lovers, but Perkins wanted children, so they never became boyfriends.

[@craigbrush5784]

I have just read Tab Hunter's autobiography and he explicitly says they had a sexual relationship for two years. And you're right about the kids thing.

[@Noone9227]

I’m not enamored with this guy as most others seem to be. He’s pretty phony and didn’t seemed to respect his fans from some of the comments he made such as thinking someone was “another goofy fan”. Thanks to those goofy fans, he was able to enjoy a wealthy life that most of us can only dream of. He doesn’t appear particularly intelligent. His comments lack depth. He repeatedly tells the same stories (re: come from the horse mouth, not the horse’s A) and says everyone is wonderful when describing them.

Rare that pretty physique reflects inner presentability. "Nobody's perfect" but that's a challenge for all humans, we struggle seriously to admit inner presentability can be or feel different from ours. Delightful presentation of Tab Hunter. Thank you.

[@trilby5546]

Info on A Perkins seems silly and misleading.⭐️

[@gllenpappaachan8055]

Why are actors shy to come out of the closet even to this day? What's the big deal of being a gay? I personally feel one must be true to his real image and be proud of his sexuality. Just to please a handful of people why should we hide our sexuality....only to be revealed or made public after one's death?

[@leland9465]

Well there is a lotbof history of anti Gay and lesbians...I recommend looking up "The lavendar scare" It was basically moral panic about homosexual people in the United States government that took place during the 1940s and 1950s...people seem to forget how the cold war and McCarthyism has cause alot of damage and negative influences by having homosexuals looked at as "subversives" who undermined national security and patriotism, and described them as Communist sympathisers

[@finderkeeperrrs]

I love that you are accepting and understand gays. But there are still ignorant homophobic fools in today's society

[@terryr7622]

You have to remember that it’s often assumed mainstream America won’t buy an openly gay actor as a romantic lead opposite a woman.

[@andrewmiller4885]

Actors who were gay never used to come out the way many do these days. You have to remember there was little to almost no understanding or even tolerance of homosexual men in the 1950's ,,,60's...and even 70 and 80's. They were not just trying to please a "handful" of people as you state. They were trying to please the millions who were paying the tickets to see these guys on the screen. If they had come out, their careers back then would have been ruined, they would have been over,...... Period.

[@RichardBaker-wt8wm]

Look how many gays,that been murder! Or attack, just for being gay!

i had almost forgot about Tab Hunter till I went to see ' 'Polyester' I didn't know he was gay but if you're in a John Waters film then you better be cool with it. i liked him because he survived the homophobia that was rampant in Hollywood with trash like 'Confidential'.
