Shannon Woodward and her queer sexuality

American actress, Shannon Woodward is 38 years old and has been part of several good film projects. These include Fox Sitcom Raising Hope from 2010 to 2014 in which she portrays the character of Sabrina Collins, Westworld from 2016 to 2018, and also in the video game The Last of Us Part II as voice of Dina.

And at the personal level, her sexuality is queer. Shannon had tweeted about this on 25 February 2021. She wrote on her official Twitter handle:

“my queerness was never something I wanted to talk about with strangers, not because it was literally ever a secret (it was never a secret). it just… is mine.”

Later, the same day, she added:

“I am so proud of the queer positive community on my neck of the internet. The good there outweighs the toxicity elsewhere.”

And an hour later, she tweeted:

“That says, to the people who are reading this who know that they are the asshats im talking about? Take a long hard look at what you put out into the world and knock it the heck off.”

Response to Shannon’s coming out

Shannon got some positive response and support from her fans on Twitter. One of them wrote:

“You’re queer? I had no idea. I still love you. Hope that’s ok.”

And another fan commented:

“You rule.”

A third Twitter user remarked:

“Don’t focus on the negative people!”

Her fans were proud of her and put up heart emojis in response. Another fan wrote a lengthy comment:

“I’m straight but I just don’t get why people care about other people’s orientation. Let people be themselves! Life’s too short to worry about other people in that way- it’s easy for me to say and I recognize that privilege but I just don’t get it. I just want people to be happy.”

Who is Shannon’s current partner?

Shannon came out as queer in 2021. Despite that, she had been in two known relationships in the past. These were two male celebrities and their names are David Gallagher and Andrew Garfield.

After actor David Gallagher broke up with Megan Fox, he started a relationship with Shannon. This was in 2004 but by March 2005, they had called it quits. They were together at the Teen Vogue Young Hollywood party at Chateau Marmont, West Hollywood, CA.

Shannon dated British Spiderman star, Andrew Garfield from 2008 to 2011. He is one year older to her and they split when he got engrossed in shooting for his new Spiderman film. An inside source said:

‘He literally never saw her,’

At that time, Shannon told everyone that they have taken a break and not met for many weeks. Andrew said:

‘I’m just busier. That’s the main thing. I haven’t got as much time to mope about and complain that I’m bored. She travels with me when she’s not working.”
‘Whenever we have time, we’re together. When I’m on my own, you’d find me in the ocean surfing.’

But they did separate for good after that. Currently, Shannon is single. She might be in a secretive relationship but has not gone public on it.
