It’s uncertain what orientation Jenna Ortega is. Some of her followers, however, are now convinced that she belongs to the LGBTQ+ community as a result of her comments in a recent interview.
Jenna referred to her co-star Gwendoline Christie as her “wife” in an interview with TV Insider. “Jenna” said “My woman. I love you. Sorry, that might be disrespectful, but that is my nickname for her. ‘Cause, she’s my wife. Sorry, I look at you, I get so, I get – my heart.”
Is Jenna Ortega gay? Is Jenna Ortega lesbian?
While Jenna Ortega might not be gay, some Wednesday Addams fans are certain she is. They claim that Wednesday and Enid Sinclair, her roommate, have romantic affection for one another. They have interpreted the extended hugs and quizzical looks as signs of LGBT emotions. The two are traveling in the “Wenclair” ship.
According to rumors, Netflix doesn’t tolerate fan theories regarding the roommates. It has been accused of deleting comments that make it seem like Addams is a lesbian. Interestingly, Netflix promoted the show by having a party at which drag queens donned Wednesday Addams garb.
Unsurprisingly, Netflix has been accused of queerbaiting by viewers who object to the streaming service’s refusal to allow implications of queer relationships in the show while simultaneously leveraging the LGBTQ+ community to market the series.
