“Being a young actor in the industry, I had a lot of people who strongly advised me to stay quiet. That was hard to live with. But I’ve never played a gay role before and I didn’t want to be limited by some strange perception,” He told People.
However, after getting engaged to his then longtime boyfriend and now husband Eric, he decided that it was finally time to come out as gay.
“It was a hard decision to figure out how to approach it in a public way… I think the more open actors can be the less stigma there will be attached, which will be a positive thing moving forward,” Dan further expressed about publicly coming out.

I remember when he came out as gay, I think it was when he was still starring in You. He & his husband are cute together, his husband kind of reminds me of James Marsden.
