The 34-year-old, known for his roles as Arsehole Guy in Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s Fleabag and Thomas Wayne in Batman series Pennyworth, shared the news with a post on Instagram.

“The journey to pride was a long one for me,” Aldridge wrote.

“I love the LGBTQ+ community and am incredibly proud and thankful to be a part of it. So much won. So much more to fight for.”
