The interviewer asked if Holland wanted to say her partner’s name, and she decided against it.
“Well I feel at this point in the conversation it feels kind of awkward. Now I feel very very shy of it. I’ve been really wrestling with this lately because most of my relationships have been with women and I don’t like talking about them because I don’t like talking about the politics of it all because I’m not political about it. I think we’re ridiculous in this country about it. Ridiculous. And so, it’s awkward because if I talk about relationships in my life or people that have been in my life, or somebody I’ve been seeing for a while or this, that and the other thing, I’d like to be able to just say that, without having to stop and say, ‘so have you come out?’ No, I haven’t come out because I am out. I live out.”
Former Two and a Half Men star Holland Taylor, 72, has been dating 40-year-old actress Sarah Paulson for "a few months," a source tells ET. Holland recently talked about her sexuality for the first time to public radio station WNYC, and while she declined to name her current partner, she did reveal the significant age gap.
"There's a very big age difference between us which I'm sure shocks a lot of people, and it startles me," Taylor said, before joking, "but as they say, 'If she dies, she dies.'"
