The film’s treatment of Don Shirley’s sexualy beli the difficult reali that gay men of lor like Jsie Smollett face to this day. * shirley gay *
The scene as a shock: Shirley has been largely solo most of the film, and there is no ditn until then that he is eher gay (ed, there is mentn of a past marriage to a woman) or bisexual. Tony dit he’s acceptg of gay people om his time workg New York nightclubs.
DPE HIS OBV FRIENDSHIP WH TONY LIP, DON SHIRLEY NEVER CAME OUT AS GAY
Don Shirley never me out as gay. The mor about Don Shirley's sexualy spread when the film Green Book premiered, where you n see the iendship between Don Shirley and Tony Lip. However, Don was married and had a wife named Jean C. Hill, wh whom he later got divorced. * shirley gay *
A few weeks ago Jsie Smollett, a star of the Fox show “Empire” and a sger-songwrer, was hospalized after he was attacked Chigo by two men shoutg racial and homophobic slurs at him, acrdg to a police statement.
(Ined other lbian, gay and trans people of lor face siar threats. And by not explorg Shirley’s lived experience, the film allows to move past the threat that he, Smollett and others aren’t many black and gay characters popular films and shows today.

Wh that drama wng the Amy Award for bt picture jt two years ago (and wh Ali wng bt supportg actor for his role as a sympathetic adult a gay black boy’s life), “Green Book” feels like a Shirley’s fay has been outspoken about how the film mischaracteriz him and his relatnship to them. Dpe His Obv Friendship Wh Tony Lip, Don Shirley Never Came Out as Gay. Don Shirley never me out as gay.
After the release of the movie, Green Book people were cur to learn more rmatn about Don Shirley cludg if he was gay or not. Don Shirley Never Came Out as Gay: All Rumors Are Fan-Generated Speculatn.
It's unclear if Don Shirley who hired Tony Lip as his bodyguard as shown Green Book was gay or not as he never announced that he was attracted to guys. He was thought to be gay but Shirley was married at one pot to Jean C. Many fans didn't believe the reason for Don Shirley's divorce; they have speculatn that Shirley got divorced bee he was gay and he didn't feel that way about women and he realized that after his marriage.
