It seems Walking Dead star Daniel Newman enjoyed a spot of jet skiing with a Sean Cody model this week.
However, the actor apparently wasn’t expecting followers to recognize his companion, after he shared photos of their outing to social media.
‘I don’t talk about my private life’
When fans started asking about the star (‘Is that tanner from Sean Cody?’ said one fan), Daniel answered directly but reservedly.
‘Lol. Whoa. I’m amazed you all know him. Love you guys but I don’t talk about my private life,’ he posted.
Although Daniel didn’t tag his location in the photos, one fan speculated that the guys were in Lake Lanier, which is located near Atlanta, Georgia. Atlanta is where Daniel was born.
The star came out as bisexual in a YouTube video in March 2017.
Speaking to The Advocate, he said last September: ‘People magazine even said that I was gay. I had just told the reporter about being bisexual and having girlfriends and things like that.
‘She was like, “Oh, cool. Are you in a relationship?” And I was like, “Yeah, I have an incredible boyfriend.” And she’s like, “Oh, cool. It’s awesome you came out as gay.”‘
As well as The Walking Dead, Daniel’s TV credits include The Vampire Diaries and Sex and the City.
