Raymond Burr was gay? This makes the fourth Gay Hunk that I've crushed on 😂🤔, I blame those stunning eyes of his.
How have I been a fan for so long and not known about this fact?
I found it tragic that Burr had to hide his relationship with his partner, of 35+ years, Robert Benevides.
As a Perry Mason fan, I want to publicly post a toast to the actor who made the Perry Mason character a Hollywood legend and the one who was his partner.

#OnThisDay in 1889 lawyer, author, and Grand Master of the Mystery Writers of America Erle Stanley Gardiner was born. A a lawyer, Gardiner gave voice to those who were often denied one - the impoverished, immigrants, and the wrongly convicted - founding The Court of Last Resort in the 1940s. As an author, he saw success in the pulp magazines before publishing his first Perry Mason story in 1933. #HistoryGetsLIT

I loved watching Miss Phryne Fisher, and Sherlock; look forward to the Perry Mason series.
My first Perry Mason book! So far, so good a quarter into it 😊

I hope to one day visit the vineyard you began as a couple, and (even though I don't drink) properly sip a toast to you both with Raymond Burr wine.
Alway a fan 🥂💝.

He gifted us with his incredible acting talent 🏆🎭 and I can't believe how he would have been lost to Hollywood if people had known back then. (edited) 4w
