    Shepard Smith is not hiding his supposed homosexuality.
    He is trying to keep his relationship with his (female) fiancee private and away from prying eyes. He goes to
    dinners with female and male FRIENDS since his fiancee lives out of state and can not always be in Manhattan due to family obligations. His fiancee is a private individual
    also, not in the public eye, by choice, and prefers to remain that way. Quit with the erroneous claims of his
    supposed homosexuality. Sorry boys, he is a very straight man; always has been.

    The reason I know all of this is because I am the aunt
    of Shepard Smith’s fiancee. My sister, my niece’s
    mother, recently passed away, from a long illness,
    (cancer) hence why my niece has not been in NYC much
    over the past year. Shepard and his fiancee also
    had to postpone their wedding due to my sister’s
    illness. Any day now, you will have to ‘eat’ your
    slanderous words about Shepard’s true sexual
    orientation, which obviously displeases y’all,
    since you seem to find him so ‘delicious.’ Your loss,
    my family’s gain.

    Hate to say it guys, but I know men that would say different. Sorry ladies……….

    Auntie whatever, I’m sorry but I know people who have had sex with your poor nieces “fiance.” They declare he is a bottom………..

    Have they? Really now. Maybe I have too and I am not a guy (have I?) I CAN say, perhaps he is BI. I have thunked on this stuff since rumors are floating around. Perhaps his just being private with his personal life and it has turned out to be not so much to his advantage. Is that fair? Not to mention the gays thinking he’s a hot number now. I also CAN say, he DOES like women and it’s NOT an act. I can tell….

    Sorry Nancy, er Shep. I know several people who work at Fox News who are techies and have slept with him – and they are all men. He has dated some women in New York as well and I’m talking recently, so he may be bisexual. Either way your “niece” is delusional. He also has other “issues” which are a lot more serious.

    Shep has drug problems. He likes his candy.

    Shepard Smith does not like girls. He is going out with Erik Liljegren.

    Shep is GAY, the reason I know this is because I am the uncle of the brother in law whose father was dating him and his nephew is a foreigner who was sick so they couldn’t hook up but soon they will be together and all of you will have to just deal with it because it is for real.

    Yep! He’s gay. The eyebrows don’t lie.

    Gay, Bi…engaged to be married or not. Who cares? He seems to be a caring soul, that’s all that really counts! (oh yeah, and I do think he’s hot…so what!)
