So it’s easy for powerful people in Hollywood to get away with being racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, and so on. It reflects American culture at large, which still privileges some people more than others. Hollywood fronts like it’s such a progressive industry. I wish Elliot had named names and put this guy on blast, but I also get why he didn’t. You’re just afraid of men.” Multiple people saw and heard it go down. The actor said some vile things to him, including, “you aren’t gay, that doesn’t exist. It’s cool when exes can be friends like that, and it isn’t always possible.Įlliot also shares a blind item in his book about a famous actor verbally harassing him at a party back in 2014, when he had come out as gay. I think it’s sweet that Elliot and Kate are still friends. And if the person you’re seeing isn’t fully available, you don’t have to be either. And he describes the “safety” in that dynamic, which might seem counterintuitive, but I know exactly what he’s talking about. That’s what society tells you that you deserve. (Or for other things, too.) If you spend your life believing that you are unlovable, or that you won’t be accepted for who you truly are, of course you’ll be attracted to people who confirm that belief by not being fully available. And I think that pattern also makes sense for people who are subjected to societal programming and shame for their gender identities or sexual orientation. It’s perceptive of Elliot to realize that he was drawn to people who were not fully available. It sounds like Kate and Elliot’s relationship was emotionally intense and meaningful for them both. But I try to approach stories like this with an attitude of curiosity rather than judgment. We are very eager in American culture to pass judgment on infidelity or polyamorous relationships.
#KATE MARA AND MAX MINGHELLA FULL#
It sounds like Kate told Max early on, but I’ll have to read the book to learn the full story. I feel like a lot of guys would respond in a territorial way or feel emasculated. I’m impressed that Max Minghella was cool with Kate and Elliot having a relationship. Separate from the intimacy that I write about.” “I think the love and care that we have for each other is its very own special thing. “And I think that is definitely a pattern in my life,” he adds. And the sort of safety in that and the highs and the lows and the serotonin bump, and then it goes away.” “I think my relationship, or whatever you want to call it with Kate, very much encapsulates a certain dynamic that I consistently found myself in, which was falling for people that - I think a lot of us do this - who aren’t fully available. “This was right after I’d come out as gay and it was a time of exploration and also heartbreak,” Page says. “I never thought I could be in love with two people and now I know I can,” Page says Mara told him. Mara is appearing with Page at a book event in Los Angeles in June.) Page writes that Minghella was supportive of Mara exploring her feelings for Page. Page goes on to describe their romance, during which Page was filming 2014’s X-Men: Days of Future Past. “She had a boyfriend at the time, the lovely and talented Max Minghella.” “The first person I fell for after my heart was broken was Kate Mara,” Page writes.
Elliot says it revealed a pattern in his life where he was attracted to unavailable people. One of the juiciest stories? Elliot described having an affair with Kate Mara while she was dating Max Minghella in 2014. He’s on the cover of People to promote Pageboy, and he shared some juicy details from the book with them. I’m so happy Elliot is telling his story, and seems like he’s in a really good place. Elliot Page has written a memoir, Pageboy, which has to be one of my favorite book titles in recent memory.
