Actor Jonathan Bailey, known for his roles in "Bridgerton" and "Wicked," has shared his aspirations for fatherhood in a candid interview with British Vogue. The 36-year-old star revealed he's already taking steps toward his dream of becoming a parent, though he's waiting for the right moment.
"Yes, it's such a privilege for a man," Bailey said when asked about having children. However, the actor acknowledged that his current busy schedule makes it challenging to pursue parenthood immediately. "I want to make sure I'm going to be present," he explained.
Bailey disclosed he's actively preparing for future parenthood by researching adoption. In a notable revelation, he shared his thoughts on potential co-parenting arrangements: "I might co-parent with a woman, but I'm thinking it will be with a man."
The actor, who is openly gay, also reflected on his personal journey, including a two-year relationship with a woman in his early twenties. "It's interesting with the binary, where you're perceived to be either this or that," he shared. "That's how I saw it at the time, but there are so many nuances to it."
While Bailey maintains privacy regarding his current relationship status, his commitment to LGBTQ+ advocacy is clear. He established The Shameless Fund in June to support LGBTQ+ initiatives, demonstrating his dedication to helping others live authentically.
Currently starring as Prince Fiyero in "Wicked" alongside Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, Bailey continues to balance his thriving career while thoughtfully planning his future as a parent.
