However, Bill assum that Harry's sudn realizatn is his homosexualy (given his dancg wh Petros, a lol Greek man), and Harry assum that Bill's disvery is his tert Rosie.

In an after-creds scene, the passport guard speaks to Young Harry after he has board the ferry to the island, tellg him that if he is rejected, Young Harry should "take a chance" on him, implyg that the guard, as well as Young Harry, are gay.

It is revealed that he is gay at the end of the first Mamma Mia when he is dancg and huggg a man.
