Actress Jodie Foster has finally come out as a lesbian to pay tribute to her girlfriend of 14 years. She broker her taboo last week after winning an award at the Women in Entertainment breakfast, and thanked her “beautiful Cindy”. The double Oscar winner praised her film producer partner Cydney Bernard “who sticks with me through all the rotten and the bliss”. The couple met on the set of the film Sommersby in 1993 and are raising two sons, Charles, nine, and Kit, six, at their Malibu home. Although she gave birth to both boys, Miss Foster has never revealed the identity of the father or the circumstances of their conception. As with most questions about her personal life, the actress has refused to comment on gossip that the father was an old university friend from Yale, who is also gay. “I feel fragile, unsure, struggling to figure it all out, trying to get there even though I’m not sure where there is,” she said. “I’ve been working in this business for 42 years and there’s no way you can do that and not be as nutty as a fruitcake.” One reason for guarding her privacy so intently was because she was the victim of stalkers earlier in her career, including John Hinckley, the man who shot President Reagan.
