Celebrity Children We Didn’t Know Were LGBTQ

Hudson Harden Scheel was born in 2004 to Marcia Gay Harden and Thaddaeus Scheel. He is one of Harden’s twins, along with Julitta, and grew up with an older sibling, Eulala. Their household was tied to film and theater through Harden’s career, though she generally kept her children’s private lives away from constant publicity.

Hudson’s identity became widely reported in 2023, when Marcia Gay Harden said during a televised LGBTQ fundraising event that all three of her children are queer. She described Hudson as gay while speaking about her family and LGBTQ rights. Hudson himself has kept a lower public profile, so most details come from Harden’s comments.
