Meeting Todd Spiewak inspired Parsons to come out
Jim Parsons came out to his family when he started dating Spiewak. The Home actor told Variety in 2019 that he wanted the people in his life to know about their relationship.
No offence to the lovely men I dated before Todd, but somewhere deep inside, I immediately knew that there was no choice left but to deal with this, because to not let them in on this person I had met was to officially start putting up these lifelong barriers.
Parsons and Todd had been together for a decade when the actor told the public about his sexuality in a May 2012 interview with the New York Times. The confirmation came at the height of his TBBT fame.
In October 2013, the long-term couple was honoured with the GSLEN Inspiration Award for their significant impact as role models to the LGBTQ+ community. During the acceptance speech, Parsons noted that he never considered their relationship to be "an act of activism" but an act of "regular life, boring love."
