''I did, yes, Jonathan Knight.... 'the quiet one, the shy one.' He became gay later. I didn't do it. But he's fabulous.... I had issues with that. I was thinking maybe I did, but no. Now looking back, when we were dating, we used to do facials together. He was so easy to talk to -- Hello! Right?''

Public Twitter exchanged between Jonathan Knight (of New Kids On the Block) and Tiffany. (Twitter/JonathanRKnight) (Twitter/TiffanyTunes)
She seems to have confirmed a long-held perception about Knight. He was one-fifth of that late '80s boy-band sensation, and many observers had guessed that, of all the band's members, Knight was most likely the one to be gay. He was also the first to leave the band.
A tabloid newspaper article outed him in February of 2009.
