Who Is Jennifer Beals’ Husband, Is She Gay?

Jennifer Beals’ breakout role as Alex Owens in the 1983 film Flashdance catapulted her to popularity and helped launch her successful acting career.

As her career progressed, the young actress starred in such hit films as 1995’s Devil in a Blue Dress, 1998’s The Last Days of Disco, and Showtime series The L Word: Generation Q. (2019).

While many of Jennifer Beals’ older fans will remember her as the flashy lead in Flashdance, younger fans will always associate her with the iconic Bette Porter (the gay character she played in The L Word: Generation Q)

The question of Jennifer Beals’ sexual orientation has been a hot topic among viewers of the show since its 2004 debut. This page would discuss Jennifer Beals’ private life, such as her relationship with husband Ken Dixon and rumors that she is gay.

Is Jennifer Beals Gay?

Actress Jennifer Beals is a vocal advocate for the LGBTQ community and the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people. Beals played Bette Porter, a lesbian with an Ivy League education, on the Showtime show The L Word. In addition, her lesbian character, Bette Porter, can be seen kissing a lot of other people in The L Word besides just her wife, Tina Kennard. She’s had her share of flings, including ones with carpenter Candace Jewell, Jodi Lerner, and plenty more besides.

The initial cast members of The L Word weren’t particularly out in real life. After all, 2004 was a different era. Alice Pieszecki’s character, Leisha Hailey, was the only out lesbian in the main cast, and she was dating Free City owner and designer Nina Garduno while production..

However, in real life, Jennifer Beals has never even tried to be anyone but straight. When asked if the show changed the way she feels about or define her own sexuality, She clarified to Vulture that she is not gay, “I am so super-square, so super-straight, and so super-cis.” “I feel so out of date and so not cool.”
