Holland Taylor

Holland Taylor is an American actress known for Two and a Half Men (CBS, 2003–2015, Primetime Emmy nomination), The Practice (ABC, Emmy win 1999), and Legally Blonde (2001). At 72 she publicly came out as lesbian in a 2015 Twitter exchange, acknowledging her relationship with actress Sarah Paulson — a romance that attracted significant attention given their 32-year age difference. Taylor, then in her seventies, became a celebrated late-life example of public coming out, and her relationship with Paulson remained a warm, frequently discussed presence on both actors' social media until they parted ways. She has spoken about the joy and freedom of living openly.
