Elliot Page is opening up about a secret romance he shared with fellow actor Kate Mara.
The Oscar-nominated “Juno” star describes Mara as “charming and gorgeous” at the dinner. Not long afterward, he writes, the pair met again at a Hollywood party where Mara greeted Page “with a look in her eye I didn’t remember from the dinner,” he writes. On Feb. 14, 2014, Page came out as gay while giving a speech at a Las Vegas benefit for LGBTQ youths. The actor recalls Mara emailing him afterward, joking, “Wait. You’re gay?!”Weeks later, Mara invited Page to a barbecue at the Los Angeles home she and Minghella shared. Page recalls Mara again flirting with him as Minghella stood nearby “not giving it a second look.”
“Everything with Kate was becoming more complicated, more loaded. I was feeling let down. Perhaps the excitement no longer outweighed the challenges,” he writes.When Page spoke of his frustration to Mara, the former “Pose” star reminded Page that she also loved Minghella and they had built a life together. “I didn’t believe someone could love two people at the same time before. I do now,” Page recalls Mara telling him.
