Ricky Martin’s mum knew his sexuality secret long before his confession

London: In his new book, ‘Me’, Ricky Martin has revealed that his mom knew about his homosexuality long before the singer told her about his big secret.

The ‘Livin` La Vida Loca’ star came out publicly in March, more than a decade after he first approached his mum and told her about his sexual orientation. And Martin admitted when he went to make his confession, he realised his mother had known all along. "(My mother asked me) ``Kiki, are you in love?`` ``Yes, Mami,`` I answered, ``I am completely in love``,” the Daily Express quoted him as writing. "``Aaaah,`` she said. ``And is it a man that you are in love with?`` ``Yes, Mami. It`s a man`," he said. ANI
