Is Kenny Chesney Gay?

Kenny Chesney’s public image is primarily focused on his music and career, as he has kept his personal life private. However, since 2005, there have been speculations and rumors about Chesney’s sexual orientation.

Some fans questioned whether he was gay due to his divorce from his ex-wife, actress Renée Zellweger. These rumors were widespread at some point and continued circulating because he did not comment on them.

However, Kenny Chesney has confirmed that he is not gay and did so openly and clearly. The rumors of him being gay started when his marriage to Zellweger ended after four months.

Court documents showed that Zellweger claimed “fraud” as the reason for the divorce. As a result, the world interpreted that to mean that the country star lied about his sexuality, failing to tell her he was gay.

Renée Zellweger Defended Chesney at the Peak of the Gay Rumor

At the peak of the rumor, it was so intense that Zellweger had to come publicly to his defense. She clarified why she used the word fraud when she filed for divorce. The American actress explained that “fraud” was “simply a legal language and not a reflection of Chesney’s character.”

In 2016, Zellweger reflected on the situation and told Advocate how she felt about the incident. She explained that the fact that people twisted her words made her sad. “It made me sad that somehow people were using that to be cruel and calling someone gay a pejorative, which has fateful consequences.”

Kenny Chesney was not entertaining that controversy at the time as he did not attempt to clarify his sexuality. But he later publicly came out to explain that he was not gay. In his interview with 60 Minutes, Chesney responded to the question of whether he was gay, saying, “It’s not true. Period. Maybe I should have said, ‘No, I’m not (gay),’ but I didn’t want to draw any more attention to it.”

What Is Chesney’s Love-Life Like Post-Marriage?

Kenny Chesney has shown that he is not gay by having different romantic relationships since his marriage to Renée Zellweger. Although the country singer has maintained a low public profile for the last ten years, it has been discovered that he has been in a long-term relationship with his current girlfriend, Mary Nolan.

The pair have been in a relationship since 2015 and have been pictured together in public a few times. Like Zellweger, Mary Nolan is also an actress, singer, and dancer.
