Gus Kenworthy\u2019s boyfriend Matthew Wilkas appears in the second of three Samsung ads profiling the Olympic skier and his journey to PyeongChang for the Winter Games.<\/p>\n
The clip features letters of support from family, fans, and friends that Kenworthy received.<\/p>\n
In the clip, Wilkas reads aloud, telling Kenworthy, \u201cI am so proud of you. I am so happy for you. Cause I know how hard you have worked to get here. You are loved by so many people, Gus.\u201d<\/p>\n
The spot also deals more directly with being a gay<\/a> role model and athlete.<\/p>\n Says one friend in a letter: \u201cAs a gay<\/a> man<\/a> growing up, I think the minute we realize we\u2019re gay<\/a> \u2013 it\u2019s a flaw \u2013 but people when they look at you, they think \u2018I can do anything and be gay<\/a> and that there\u2019s nothing wrong with me.’\u201d<\/p>\n Another letter from a gay<\/a> fan, Wendle, expresses thanks for helping him come out.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The post Gus Kenworthy\u2019s Boyfriend Matt Tells Him \u2018You Are Loved\u2019 in Heart-Tugging Samsung Ad: WATCH<\/a> appeared first on Towleroad<\/a>.<\/p>\n
