Willam Belli, one of the most well-known American drag queens, has always been open about his sexual preferences and relationship status. Belli married Bruce Bealke in September 2008, however, the drag queen disclosed that they were no longer together in one of his 2019 YouTube videos.
Belli Confirms His Divorce From His Husband
In September 2019, the famous drag queen posted a video titled “ASS-umptions w/ WILLAM” to his official YouTube channel. The purpose of the video was to respond to his fans’ preconceptions about his personal and professional life.
“That you’re happily married,” one assumption read, prompting Belli to respond that he had divorced from his husband Bealke and was currently single.
“I’m no longer married; I’m single and divorced.”
He didn’t say much about the matter, though, and quickly went on to the next assumption. So yet, it’s unclear whether the pair were simply separated or divorced.
Fans were devastated by the news, which came as a shock to them. “Wait, what?” said one of them. Is he no longer married to his husband? Oh no… What went wrong? That’s really a pity.” “I didn’t know he hasn’t married anymore,” one remarked, while the other said, “I didn’t know he hasn’t married anymore.”
For a Decade, Belli was married.
The pair had been married for just over eleven years before they divorced in late 2019. After being intimately connected for nearly six years, Belli and Bealke exchanged wedding vows on September 9, 2008.
Bealke is a software engineer and an entertainment lawyer. He had always been known for his outspoken and extroverted attitude, and just a few details of his life were kept private.
Similarly, the drag queen has already been caught parading his ex-partner on social media. He never hesitated away from show love to his ex-wife, whether it was mocking him or posting a picture with their favorite dog.
Belli, for example, turned to Instagram to jokingly complain about his husband’s dinner punctuality. “When your husband is 35 minutes late for dinner and you spend the time with the dog while he eats,” he wrote.
Was Belli kicked off ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ because of his ex-girlfriend?
After the Sex in the City actor was disqualified from the fourth season of RuPaul’s Drag Race 2009, the two’s romance gained public notice. A contender was disqualified for breaching the rules for the first time in the competition’s history.
During the show, Bealke would reportedly pay a visit to his husband in his hotel room. It was cited as the reason for Belli’s disqualification because it blatantly violated competition regulations. The truth, on the other hand, was something else, according to him.
In June 2018, the furious drag queen turned to Twitter to explain the real reason for his disqualification: a sexual connection with a producer. Furthermore, he claimed that the producers compelled him to back up his lie by inviting his husband to appear on the broadcast.
When Belli turned down the proposal, the cameras cut to a random man in the audience, who was introduced as Belli’s gay boyfriend.
