Family – Is He Gay Or Has A Girlfriend?

One of the things actors and actresses have to contend with in their personal lives is the impact the characters they give life to on set have on their personal lives and the interpretations their fans give to the issues that come up. There have been numerous cases of on-screen couples paired in real life but unfortunately turn out not to be so. There have also been cases where actors and actresses are termed to be gay or otherwise in real life based on how well they played a character. Calum Worthy comes in the category of the later.

The Austin & Ally star was rumoured to be gay around 2015 owing to his role and perfect portrayal of the character Dez in Austin & Ally; Dez had an odd personality and weird fashion sense. In addition to this, Worthy was also not known to have a girlfriend in real life or at best, kept his dating life a closely guarded secret.

When his fans couldn’t draw a concrete conclusion from any of the above, they quickly assumed that the actor was probably gay and was afraid to come out because of his parents.

However, Calum Worthy, before this time, was rumoured to be in a relationship with Raini Rodriguez back in the year 2012. The two had their pictures circulating all over the social media at the time. But owing to the fact that Raini was his co-star on Austin & Ally, and that neither of them has commented on their assumed relationship, this rumour died a natural death as it did not hold much water.

As it is, Calum does not have any family of his own, he is not married neither do we know him to have a boyfriend or a girlfriend.
