One of the world's most decorated actors Kevin Spacey is currently grabbing headlines for all the wrong reasons. Spacey who came out as gay back in October 2017 has been embroiled in sexual allegations against him. Almost fifteen men came forward and sued the star.

Kevin Spacey's Current Relationship Status; Came Out As Gay In 2017
The Tony Award-winning actor Kevin Spacey is very secretive when it comes to his personal life. Due to the notable absence of a wife or girlfriend of the star led many to doubt on his sexuality.
In 1999, The Sunday Times Magazine addressed that his "love affair with acting, and the absence of a visible partner in the life of an attractive 40-year-old, has resulted in Esquire magazine asserting two years ago that he must be gay."
Though he was rumored to be dating a couple of women including Dianne Dreyer and Ashleigh Banfield in past, those speculations just vanished with the passage of time.
After long rumors going on, he came out of the closet in an apology to Anthony Rapp via Twitter post. Rapp accused Spacey of attempting sexual misconduct when he was just 14.

He mentioned that he had a relationship with both men and women but he loved romantic encounters with men.
Spacey is most probably single at present as he is not spotted spending a quality moment with someone special. He might be dating someone in secret.

"What are you doing? I am a professional. This is what I do for a living. I have a son."
He explained that Spacey grabbed his genitals over his clothes.
