During the interview, Robin Roberts asked Colton Underwood what gave him the courage to come out of the closet.
I got into a place in my personal life that was dark and bad. I can list a bunch of different things, but they’d all be excuses. I think overall the reason why now is because I got to a place where I didn’t think I was ever going to share this. I would rather have died than say ‘I’m gay,’ and I think that was sort of my wake up call.”
Turns out, Colton Underwood reached a point where he would rather be dead over admitting his sexuality. This was his wake-up call. And, it gave him the strength to come out.
