Was nero gay

At the beginning of 66 AD, Nero married Statilia Messalina. Later that year or in 67 AD, he married Sporus, who was said to bear a remarkable resemblance to Poppaea.

Various ancient sources state that the emperor Nero celebrated two public weddings with males, once taking the role of the bride (with a freedman Pythagoras), and once the groom (with Sporus); there may have been a third in which he was the bride. [].
