The Walking Dead's Daniel Newman Poses With Gay Porn Star

The Walking Dead star Daniel Newman has been spending time with gay adult film star Tanner, encouraging fans to believe that they are in a relationship.

Newman, who thought fans would not recognize his companion, posted in Instagram photos of him and Tanner playing watersports last Tuesday. After the overwhelming reaction, Newman commented, "Whoa. I'm amazed you all know him."

Oh, they knew him and had a lot to say about the photo of the two together.

"THIS IS LIKE BEING IN THE WORLD'S BEST CANDY STORE, RIGHT AFTER BEING TOLD YOUR BLOOD SUGAR IS SO HIGH THAT IF YOU EVEN SMELL THE CANDY YOU WILL DIE" posted one commenter. "This isn't a thirst trap. This is a thirst nuke." wrote another.

Newman, who is bisexual and has been outspoken about queer representation in Hollywood, told fans, "Love you guys but I don't talk about my private life."

Raised in a conservative home in Georgia, Newman stayed in the closet even after he moved to Hollywood. He came out on social media in a video.

"The whole world, the industry is like 'Here's your big break, you're on The Walking Dead, you can't come out, you can't be in the press, because everything you work so hard for is going to be gone,'" he proclaimed. "There's no gay or bi leading men, no action heroes, your career's going to be over."
