“We were just sitting there and we both started to cry and I got up and went over to him and said it’s going to be OK Michael. “We hugged. And it was kind of then that the hug was a little bit more. It wasn’t until a few months later that it was obvious that Michael had feelings for me as well. “I just assumed that he was probably bisexual. I know we loved each other, I know he told me that all the time. I believe that he was probably my soulmate.”
Dr. Klein confirmed the relationship saying he walked in on the couple when Michael – who had always denied being gay – was allegedly shirtless. He said: “When you see two people looking at each other you know what’s happening. I was just very happy for both of them.” Jason – who claims to have had a voicemail message which Michael left for him – believes Michael would have wanted him to speak about their alleged romance.
He said: “Setting the record straight and telling the truth, as opposed to hiding in some house in the middle of nowhere… I think he would have approved of that, yes.” This is not the first time it has been alleged Michael – who died last June – had gay relationships. The 50-year-old star’s unofficial biographer Ian Halperin claimed he had spoken to two men Michael had relationships with.
He said: "In the course of my investigations, I spoke to two of his gay lovers, one a Hollywood waiter, the other an aspiring actor. The waiter had remained friends, perhaps more, with the singer until his death. He had served Jackson at a restaurant, Jackson made his interest plain and the two slept together the following night. According to the waiter, Jackson fell in love."
