He further revealed that he has a lot of gay friends whom he loves and is comfortable to have them around.
Uzor stressed that he would not accept being misidentified simply because certain individuals are like that.
He did, however, state that if he were gay, he would have been “one of the hottest around.” According to Love In Every Word’s star, it was best to let God judge.
