Yesterday News broke that NBA
Baller Jason Collins announce that he is gay, and since then folks has been
snappin about how they feel about Dude preference some are being
supportive and other are just tripping off about it not in a oh so good way.
Now Carolyn Moos who is the Baller ex-fiancée that dated him for eight years is speaking out on their relationship. The couple was about to get married but never made it down the aisle to say I do, and because Jason is Gay this is why. However Carolyn is joining the noise telling what with down between them. Okay here the snap per YBF:
"In 2009, NBA baller Jason Collins called off his wedding
to fiancée Carolyn Moos with an off-court play that left her heartbroken and
wondering "why?" Last week...she got her answer. Before Jason became "the first openly gay
professional American athlete", he made a long
overdue phone call to his former girlfriend of eight years to explain why he
abruptly ended their engagement. Carolyn, a 6' 5" former WNBA
player, opened up to TMZ about the intimate phone
call her ex-fiancé made to her a few days ago,
"It's very emotional for me as a woman to have invested 8
years in my dream to have a husband, soul mate, and best friend in him. So this
is all hard to understand."
Though he'd kept his fiancee and family members in the dark for
many years, Jason talked to GMA's George
Stephanopoulos during a taped interview this morning,
and revealed why he was finally able to come out.
"I always knew I was gay, it’s like you know that the sky is
blue but you keep telling yourself it is red. I fought it for a long time but
when you finally get to the point of acceptance there is nothing more
beautiful. It feels incredible.'
He also talked about his relationship with Carolyn and what
stopped him from getting married saying, “Calling off the wedding was
obviously a tough decision but it was the right one because I knew I wasn't
getting married for the right reasons.”
And now that they've talked about what happened a few years ago,
Carolyn says she's ready to move forward and isn't holding any grudges,
"I care about [Jason] tremendously and only want the best for
him. I want Jason to be happy for a lifetime and stay true to who he really is,
inside and out."
