At the 2014 Human Rights Campaign “Time to Thrive,” actress Ellen Page came out, saying, “I’m here today because I am gay, and because maybe I can make a difference, to help others have an easier and more hopeful time…I am tired of hiding and I am tired of lying by omission.” In January of 2018, she married her partner, Emma Portner. In late 2017, Page accused director Brett Ratner of outing her when she was only 18, working on X-Men: The Last Stand. Actress Anna Paquin supported her statement, saying she witnessed it. People are thrilled that Page had the courage to speak up and reclaim her identity.
