Justice Smith & Nicholas Ashe

Justice Smith is here to stay in Hollywood as an openly gay actor. One of the leads in the series, Genera+ion, the actor admitted that he did not regret opening up about his sexuality last year. Though he hesitated about announcing his orientation for half a second, he chose to be brave about it. Ashe, on the other hand, had admitted that he was gay when he worked on Choir Boy on Broadway. The couple came out as a couple when they attended the Black Lives Matter march.

Their investments in their relationship showed that it was possible for people of color to be in a same-sex relationship. With these two stars at the cusp of fame at a young age, they are in the best position to be more open about talking about their sexuality. Justice knows that it is still a long way to go, but seeing their happiness together should be enough for now.
