Luke Evans has shared a funny moment with Gemma Arterton after coming out to her as gay. In his new memoir, he reflects on the challenges of being open about his sexuality in Hollywood, where he feared it would impact his career.

Evans, who worked with Arterton on the 2010 film "Tamara Drewe," felt relieved to confide in her. She humorously responded, saying she already knew he was in a relationship with his boyfriend, Lee, who could not visit him openly during filming.

The actor discusses the pressure he faced in the industry, where openly gay actors often struggled to secure romantic roles. His memoir, "Boy from the Valleys: An Unexpected Journey," is now available.
