Casey spoke wh Ele Daily and shared that his favoure thg about Kev is that he is openly and proudly gay, ‘He’s an credibly nse character, and I thk ’s really important that ’s jt a part of him.
— Casey Cott (@CaseyCott) April 10, 2020Personal lifeAlthough his character is gay “Riverdale, ” Casey is straight real-life. Bryant eventually lost her job as Florida’s cs missn’s brand ambassador bee of her anti-gay DeSantis is playg the long game, bettg on her hband to set down some markers that n last beyond 2024. Still relative newers to the natnal polil scene, we don’t know a lot about eher DeSantis beyond what they’re tellg , and they’re tellg they’re really, really, really opposed to gay and lbian and transgenr should believe them, even if Tmp’s voters don’t.
