'Robin was just the greatest person. Such a beautiful, sensitive soul and so kind and generous to me.'
When Oprah asks if Nathan is"afraid of taking that role and being, like, typecast and people forever saying, 'Are you? Are you not?'" Robin jumps in with a hilarious impersonation of Oprah, giving him time to collect his thoughts.Nathan added,"I don't think Oprah was trying to out me, but I said to Robin beforehand: 'I'm not prepared. I'm so scared of going out there and talking to Oprah.
Nathan explained how Robin"sort of swoops in and diverts Oprah and goes off on a tangent and protects [him] because he was a saint.""I just wasn't ready to do that, to make this whole thing… the public side of it, the celebrity side," Nathan reflected."'Oh, now you're a public figure, and you have to make some sort of public statement about it.' I was terrified. I wasn't ready to do that.
It was a moment that reminded me of the importance of living in your truth, despite the horrors of violence and bigotry brought upon the LGBTQIA community. Years later, I found the voice to come out publicly, but the actions of Nathan Lane and Robin Williams sat with me forever.Pictures from Home
