Is Matthew Beard gay?

Matthew Beard has never commented on his sexual orientation until 2022. So it’s hard to say whether the actor is gay or straight.

But gay or not, Matthew is still upset about issues related to injustice towards the LGBTQ+ community. Recalling his time filming The Imitation Game, Matthew shared that he knew who Alan Turing was, but did not know if he was gay or had been chemically castrated for his homosexuality.

“I still feel sad when I think about it,” he said.

Who is Matthew Beard’s partner?

Matthew Beard and actress Sophie Kennedy Clark were dubbed the “New Burberry Couple” in 2011, but we don’t know if they were ever partners in real life.

At the time, Matthew and Sophie were the faces of the British brand’s spring/summer 2011 campaign, which featured a series of British couples showcasing their dream outfits each month, and the duo took centre stage in April.

Back in October 2015, the couple were also spotted together at the premiere of Giorgio Armani’s Films of City Frames, all dressed in black. But the two have remained tight-lipped about their relationship.

A little about Matthew’s potential partner, Sophie Kennedy Clark @sophiekennedyclark is an actress, surgeon and filmmaker based in Glasgow, London. She is also the daughter of The Wicker Man (1973) actress Fiona Kennedy and the niece of singer Calum Kennedy.

Matthew Beard’s Parents

Some reputable websites have mentioned Matthew Beard’s parents as Isabel Beard and Geoffrey Edelsten. But that is not true.

It seems they confused the actor’s name with the tattooed bodybuilder “Matthew Beard”, who is the son of his father/doctor Edelsten and his former receptionist, Isabel.

Totally off topic, but here’s a fun fact about them. After Geoffrey passed away, his son Matthew dated his stepmother Gabi Grecko (Geoffrey’s second wife) in 2021.

Also, for those who are confused, Conleth Hill, Rachel Liberman, and Shirley McKenna are not related to Matthew. However, the former two are his on-screen parents, and the latter is his sister in Vienna Blood.

So, who are Matthew Beard’s real parents? Well, he has kept their identities a secret. All we know about them is that they were supportive of his career. It was his parents who signed him up for a local drama club in Yorkshire, England, when he was just four years old in an effort to curb his hyperactive nature.
