Trevor Donovan is an American actor and model best known for his role as Teddy Montgomery on the TV series 90210. As the story continued, Donovan’s character came out as gay, which unwittingly helped him attract female attention.
His Dating Life Was Aided by Playing a Gay Character
Teddy, Donovan’s character in the drama series, was previously portrayed as a lady charmer. His character narrative took a shocking turn as the episode went, and it was revealed that he was a secretly gay man. Not only the fans but also the actor were taken aback by the news.
The beautiful hunk revealed in a 2010 interview with E! Online that he had no idea Teddy would be outed as gay. After speaking with the filmmakers and producers, Donovan was certain that his experience would be told truthfully and sympathetically. He was also ecstatic to take on such a demanding task.
Furthermore, he believes that his character was previously loathed by fans because he was presented as a womanizer, but that once viewers learned about Teddy’s sexual struggles, they empathized with him. After his character’s sexuality was revealed in 90210, the brilliant actor stated he received surprising female attention.
The actor was pleased with his performance and aspired to be a role model for the younger generation, encouraging them to be open about their sexuality.
Kerry Kennedy and Paris Jackson were rumored to be dating Donovan.

One of Kennedy’s family members disclosed to Mail Online that the purported pair were very close and had traveled all over the world.
Not only that, but according to Donovan’s management, the actor, who is nineteen years younger than Kennedy, was one of the first persons she called when she was detained for a DUI accident.
In July 2021, police in Westchester County, New York, arrested the niece of former US President John F. Kennedy after she crashed into a truck while driving under the influence of Ambien.
