more Sara Gilbert after the hop…

Gilbert held a press conference at the Television Critics Association in Los Angeles and dropped the big bombshell:

“I don’t think [being out] will be a problem…I don’t ever really think of things as being out or in…I just think I am who I am, and when topics come up that are appropriate, I’ll talk about them and share when it seems right…This is a whole new world for me,” she said. “I’m not an expert on this, or I don’t analyze these things,” she explained later. “I’m just sort of living my life.”

Sara Gilbert has two children with her partner, with TV producer Allison Adler.
