Henry: I’m as much a person and a part of this family as you. I deserve to be happy as much as any of you do. And I don’t think I ever will be if I have to spend my whole life pretending.
Philip: Nobody’s saying you don’t deserve to be happy. First love makes everyone mad—it’s foolish to throw away your future because of one hormonal decision based on less than a year of your life when you were barely in your twenties.
Henry: I’ve been gay as a maypole since the day I came out of Mum, Philip.
This quote comes from the book ‘Red, White & Royal Blue’ written by Casey McQuiston.
