Is Recently Out ‘Prison Break’ Star Wentworth Miller Dating Actor Luke Macfarlane?

by Adrian Garcia | on August 22, 2013


After “Prison Break” star Wentworth Miller, age 41, came out as gay Wednesday in an open letter addressed to Russia declining an invitation over that nation’s anti-gay law, Luke Mcfarlane is now making headlines as his rumored boyfriend.


Miller and Macfarlane have been linked together since 2007 after Perez Hilton forcibly outed Wentworth and then said the two were dating according to a ‘reliable source.’ In this picture, the two are riding around in the car laughing. In October, Wentworth went on to deny any gay rumors in an interview with German In Style magazine, adding that he would like to have a girlfriend and a family, but for the time being he wanted to focus on acting.



According to the Perez Hilton June 24, 2007 article:
“Wentworth and Luke have been secretly dating for almost six months now,” says an impeccable source close to the pair. “They’ve been very quiet about their relationship, obviously, as Wentworth is not out of the closet.”
Things between the pair are so serious that the couple are talking about moving in together, we hear.
“They spend a lot of time at each other’s houses,” says our mole. “Wentworth has been pretty reclusive since he’s become famous and he’s been even more of a shut-in since he started dating Luke.”
The pair are so close that McFarlane has even accompanied Miller to Asia to film some recent commercials and adverts, our source tells us.

Luke Mcfarlane, a Canadian actor who played the character Scotty on Brothers & Sisters, bravely came out in a 2008 interview with the Canadian Globe and Mail. Regarding his decision to come out after years of speculation in the press regarding his sexuality, Macfarlane said:

I don’t know what will happen professionally … that is the fear, but I guess I can’t really be concerned about what will happen, because it’s my truth. … There is this desire in L.A. to wonder who you are and what’s been blaring for me for the last three years is how can I be most authentic to myself – so this is the first time I am speaking about it in this way.


Miller has yet to reveal if he’s dating Macfarlane or anyone in particular at the moment. You can read his ‘coming out’ letter sent Wednesday to the St. Petersburg International Film Fest, declining to participate because of Russia’s anti-LGBT laws.

“I am deeply troubled by the current attitude toward and treatment of gay men and women by the Russian government,” Miller wrote. “The situation is in no way acceptable, and I cannot in good conscience participate in a celebratory occasion hosted by a country where people like myself are being systematically denied their basic right to live and love openly.”

*Side Note:If you think you know someone that might be gay, lesbian or bisexual, do not force them out of the closet. Let them decide to come out on their own terms when they are ready. It is no one’s decision but their own to announce their sexuality to you or the world. ;)

During an epic quest to find a good brunch spot, tensions in friendships and relationships start to grow as Mark decides to have a bro-breakup with Jason and replace him with Simon on this week’s episode of “Satisfaction.”

Because of Jason’s (Luke Macfarlane) busy schedule between school and hanging out with Maggie (Leah Renee), Mark (Ryan Belleville) starts to think that Jason never has any time to hang out with him anymore, and becomes fed up with being on the back-burner of his life.

As a “trial separation,” Mark decides to temporarily move out of the apartment he shares with Maggie and Jason, and live with Simon (Pat Thornton), where they discuss the possibility of becoming roommates.

“You’re my R2D2 to my C-3PO,” Mark tells Simon excitedly in a preview for the episode.

Meanwhile, Maggie (Leah Renee) also becomes increasingly irritated with Jason’s indecisiveness after he is indifferent when she tells him about a promotion she has been offered at work – leaving Maggie to wonder if Jason really does care about her future.

Still vying to get Mark’s attention after worrying he will be replaced by Simon as his best friend and wanting to prove that he does indeed care about Maggie’s life decisions, Jason divides his attention between Mark and Maggie throughout the day, as the gang looks for a good brunch spot in Toronto.

"Satisfaction" airs Mondays at 8pm ET on CTV. You can also watch full episodes online at CTV.ca.
