LONDON - Putting an end to years of speculation over his sexuality, pop star Ricky Martin has admitted that he is gay.

Martin, who fathered two children with a surrogate mother two years ago, stated on his website that he felt “blessed to be who he was”, reports The BBC.

Martin said: “Today I have accepted my homosexuality as a gift that gives me life.”

The Puerto Rican star said his decision to write his memoirs had helped him to free “things that were too heavy to keep inside”. (ANI)
