Stephen Fry admitted he was left 'embarrassed and awkward' after an 'eye-watering' grilling about his sexual preferences while appearing on ITV's The Assembly. The broadcaster has long been vocal about his sexuality, and in 2024 opened up about how being gay felt like there was 'a horror inside him' when he was a teenager. Asked what was more 'intense', Stephen joked that the grilling on the ITV show was worse than his time around the roundtable on Celebrity Traitors. In a tell-all interview with The Times, Stephen admitted being gay used to feel like there was 'a horror inside him' and he felt 'rejected'. Stephen and Elliott have kept a low profile during their relationship and haven't been pictured together for six years.
