National Coming Out Day: Celebrities Who Came out in 2016

Gloria Vanderbilt

Vanderbilt is the mother of Anderson Cooper, and an artist, author, actress, fashion designer, heiress, and socialite. She was made especially famous by a trial in the 1930s, in which her mother, Gloria, and her paternal aunt, Gertrude, fought for custody of Gloria and control over her $5 million trust fund. In March, Gloria, 92, told Anderson, 48, that she was once in a same-sex relationship. Vanderbilt didn't exactly come out-- but she did reveal that she was just 13 at the time of the relationship, and thinks it is natural for everyone to experience same-sex love. "I think almost everybody goes through at one point of course, the thing is, now we realize there’s no difference. Love is love.” (Getty)
