“He wasn't closeted. It just hadn't been mentioned on the show,”

Payne further explained how the character would be working out. He said:-

“There's no difference between a gay person and a heterosexual person at the end of the day,”

Payne told Jesus is gay in the comic books. He divulged:-

“'You don't go into a scene going ''Oh, wow, I've gotta really think I'm a gay person now.'' There's no difference really,”

The statement was about his character in his series, but people assumed him to be gay in real life too. And the rumors gained further hype as he's one of the open advocates for gay rights.

While the fans mourn the death of Jesus, Tom, on the other hand, couldn't be happier. Following the airing of the stated episode, he sat down for an interview with the Hollywood Reporter to discuss Jesus' death, among other things.

On Jesus death, he reflected:-

"I know people will be disappointed and shocked, but I'm happy."

He then added:-

"I know a lot of people are going to be bummed about it, but I've been bummed for the last two years, that the character hasn't gotten as much cool stuff [on the show] as he has in the comic books. They gave me a really cool ending, and I'm happy with that."

Additionally, Tom also explained how his dissatisfaction with his character role in the series had led the writers to kill off his character. He revealed:-

"They were aware I wouldn't be unhappy if they got rid of me. I expressed unhappiness last season. I was very frustrated with what the character had been doing."

He also dropped two cents on Jesus' gay orientation by criticizing the writers and creators for never explicitly mentioning it.
