Rock Hudson's Partner Marc Christian Dead (Of Drug Overdose?)

Marc Christian, either the "good friend" or "partner" (according to Wikipedia) of late Rock Hudson (pictured), has died of a reported drug overdose. Hudson's estate was sued by Christian after Hudson's death, with the actor's former lover claiming "intentional infliction of emotional distress" after Hudson, knowing he had AIDS, continued having sex with Christian for eight months. Christian, who tested HIV-negative, was awarded $14.5 million in a jury trial.

Marc Christian wasn't a "partner" of Rock Hudson. He was a boytoy on the side. Hudson was surrounded by a posse of older semi-offical (and deeply closeted) lovers — with whom he'd drink to excess starting right after breakfast. Christian was one of the many who popped into this menage from time to time so Rock could get a quick and easy fuck.

So did Rock Hudson, if Armistead Maupin is to be believed – something about "the size of a baby's arm" if i recall…

I met and had a number of sexual encounters with Marc in the late 80's while living in L.A. There was no safe sex involved and no disclosure.
Imagine my shock six months after we lost contact when I saw him on the news suing the estate for non disclosure!
It was this incident that prompted me to take the test and indeed I was positive.
Whether or not the infection came from Marc I will never know and don't really care to know but I always marvelled at the hypocricy of his lawsuit.

John, Marc wasn't positive as far as I know. He sued because, according to him, Rock put him at great risk.

Why didn't you get in contact with Mark Miller & Rock's lawyers when this whole thing went down?

I assumed responsibility for my own actions and quite frankly don't agree with all these lawsuits. I must admit the thought occurred to me but it would have made me a hypocrite.

The story's been pulled from the Advocate's website and Musto (the source of all the reports including this one) is now saying that he's being told that Christian died in April or September and that Christian has issued falase reports of his own death before.

The Los Angeles Times has confirmed with his sister that Christian died in June of pulmonary disease, probably related to his heavy smoking.
