Is Clay Aiken Married? A Look at the ‘American Idol’ Alum’s Love Life

In 2008, Clay Aiken took the cover of People magazine with his newborn son, Parker. “Yes, I’m Gay,” the magazine’s tagline read.

It was the first time Clay had discussed his sexuality publicly. He told the outlet that after the birth of his son, he decided he needed to come clean to the world. “It was the first decision I made as a father,” he said, adding, “I cannot raise a child to lie or to hide things. I wasn’t raised that way, and I’m not going to raise a child to do that.”
