During an interview in the latest edition of GQ Hype, the actor said: "There's two things we don't want to know: if you're an alcoholic or if you're gay."
He said that such a comment "ripples through," with him admitting that it weighed on his mind. He said: "Of course, I thought that in order to be happy I needed to be straight."
Jonathan however later decided to put his own happiness before concern for his career, with him no longer afraid to discuss his sexuality in interviews.
The Olivier Award winner said that he "reached a point" where his attitude became "f*** this," with him deciding to prioritise being open over securing projects.
He said: "I'd much prefer to hold my boyfriend's hand in public or be able to put my own face picture on Tinder and not be so concerned about that, than get a part."
