Corrie Star Opens Up about Struggle With Sexuality

Coronation street star Daniel Brocklebank, who plays Billy Mayhew in the soap, said he "hated himself" over his teenage struggles with his sexuality.

Speaking about coming out as gay at the age of 15, he told the Gay Times: "I was 12-years-old the first time I actually realised that I was gay. Back then there was no internet, very few gay people on TV or in the media, and we weren't taught about homosexuality in school.

"For a while I thought I might be the only person out there who felt like that.

"I hated myself for it and hoped it was a phase."
