“Although I have had a child with Aaron, I still can’t tell you what he was feeling inside; no one can. Acknowledged the immense pain that it caused him. Nevertheless, per the athlete’s elder brother, Dennis Jonathan Hernandez AKA DJ, he somehow got the courage to tell his mother his deepest truth in a way like never before in 2017.

In fact, the most he revealed regarding his personal life in the early 2010s prior to his arrest for murder in 2013 revolved around his romance with Shayanna Jenkins and the daughter they shared. Nearly a decade after his trial, the show seems to implicate that the New England Patriots tight end might have been gay. I would have understood.

There’s still some uncertainty about what Aaron’s sexuality was even after his death.

If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis, help is available. I think that he also came out of a culture that was so negative about gay people that he exhibited some self-hatred.”

Days before his death, investigative journalist Michelle McPhee joked with friends Kirk Minihane and Gerry Callahan on the radio show that Aaron was “tight end on and off the field,” adding, “then he became a wide receiver.” The trio riffed on jokes about his sexuality, and Michelly McPhee wrote a subsequent piece on Newsweek, titled “Aaron Hernandez’s Sex Life Probed as Murder Motive” where she denotes that he allegedly had a relationship with a male former high school classmate and that his suicide note was written to his prison boyfriend (which was debunked, since it was written to his attorney).

I saw no indication that he was gay or homosexual.”

She also made a statement in an interview with ABC News after the release of the Netflix series Killer Inside: The Mind of Aaron Hernandez which speculated about his sexuality during the case. “Although I’ve had a child with Aaron, I still can’t tell you how he was feeling inside.

It’s not shameful and I don’t think anybody should be ashamed of who they are inside, regardless of who they love. Call the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988 for free and confidential counseling.

No one can."

The Netflix docuseries "Killer Inside: The Mind of Aaron Hernandez," which was released in January, spoke to a high school teammate and friend of Hernandez, Dennis Sansoucie, who said the two engaged in a sexual relationship while in high school.

Jenkins-Hernandez said that she knew of Sansoucie, but doesn't know him well and he wasn't very involved in Hernandez's adult life.

However, she said through tears, "You start to feel for people that may be hiding inside how they really feel.

I think it’s a beautiful thing. “Then, all of a sudden, they have this conversation, and they’re both flooded with tears across from each other.”

DJ also stated that since it all happened during a prison visit, their mother’s heart was shattered because she could do nothing but witness Aaron deal with what seemed like the weight of the world on his shoulders.

He never publicly confirmed or denied anything before his death by suicide in 2017, yet it has been alleged his paranoia about being completely himself consumed him from the inside out. There was no behavior that made me think differently."

She wishes that if Hernandez had been hiding his sexuality, he would have come to her.

"If he did feel that way or if he felt the urge, I wish that I -- I was told," said Jenkins-Hernandez.

He pleaded not guilty and on April 19, 2017, he was found dead in his prison cell at the Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center.
