In an August 1999 Rolling Stone cover story, Martin spoke about past loves and rumors that he wasn’t straight:
You know, the bigger you get, the more people talk about you. You’ve been frank about saying your music appeals to everybody, men and women. Maybe as a result of that there’ve been some rumors flying around about your sexuality.
Well, this is show business. It’s a lot of fantasy. You can fantasize whatever you want to be. You can fantasize however you want to [laughs]. Go for it. Be free about it. I’m not too concerned with what people say about me. You can think whatever you want. I know what I am, my beliefs, what I like and don’t like. As I just said, I have the need someday to have a family. And that’s something I’m going to go for. The people I care about know me. I’m happy.

The singer has gathered popularity on news today with pride and relief. He writes “writing this is a solid step towards my inner peace and vital part of my evolution,” He also added “I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man. I am very blessed to be who I am.
