Diller, 83, feared publicly revealing his sexuality earlier

Media mogul Barry Diller has publicly discussed his sexuality for the first time, revealing he was afraid to come out earlier in life. He shared his experiences in an interview on CBS Sunday Morning. Diller, 83, explained his fear stemmed from societal pressures and a lack of self-acceptance during his youth, particularly in the 1960s and 70s. He recalled feeling condemned after seeking information about homosexuality as a young teenager. The interview coincides with the upcoming release of Diller's memoir, "Who Knew," and a recent essay where he discussed his long relationship with Diane von Fürstenberg. The book is set to be released on May 20th.
