Billy Porter reveals he was diagnosed HIV positive 14 years ago

Actor Billy Porter has shared that he has been living with HIV for 14 years and decided to make the revelation now as he hopes to free himself from "that shame in silence". The 51-year-old actor, who made history by winning an Emmy in 2019 for his role as Pray Tell, a character who is HIV-positive, on the acclaimed FX series "Pose", said he used the part as a "surrogate" to tell his real-life story.
