Ian Gallagher actor Cameron Monaghan has never dated his on-screen love tert Noel Fisher and is not gay real life. Startg wh Mickey’s rcue of a dg-addled Ian and culmatg wh last night’s brawl-ducg g-out scene, the two are fally makg good on four seasons of simmerg the start, Monaghan’s Ian Gallagher was touted as a “unique” gay character on televisn. And while ’s te that Ian is a b more rough and tumble than your ual gay stereotype, he’s still a fairly sensive boy.

CAMERON MONAGHAN PLAYS AN OPENLY GAY MAN ON 'SHAMELS,' BUT IS HE IRL?

Another part is Ian’s volvement the gay-club and prostutn scene. But the eedom and relief Mickey feels kissg Ian public whout reprisal, or beg told he’s “lucky” to have Ian at an affluent gay mixer, is eye-openg and embolng for the poor kid. There are a ln ways to be gay Ameri and none of them are wrong.

A GAY UPLE RAN A RAL RTRANT PEACE. THEN NEW NEIGHBORS ARRIVED.

Beg gay n be hard everywhere and is certaly harr on the wrong sis of the Chigo tracks.
