Hackett tried three times to tell his parents he was gay, but it wasn’t until he showed them a picture of his boyfriend that the reality began to sink in.
In a jaw-dropping moment that left viewers stunned, Minnesota news anchor Jason Hackett came out as gay during a live broadcast on KARE 11’s Sunrise show.
While his co-workers and close friends were aware of his sexuality, Hackett had struggled with sharing this part of his life with his parents.
His parents hail from Jamaica, a country Hackett describes as not particularly ‘LGBTQ+-friendly.’
