Steven Strait – relationship and sexuality
Steven Strait is straight. In 2007, Steven Strait got married to actress Lynn Collins. Indeed, it might sound better to say that she got married to him. At that time, Strait was just 21 years old and his wife was 30. You may know her. She is most recognized for her roles in the films “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” and “John Carter”. Strait and Collins separated in 2013 and divorced. The union did not produce a child. The very next year, Collins remarried. Strait is yet to remarry.
We wonder where the rumors of him being gay are coming from.
