—including details of a two-year secret love affair with a woman and fellow actor who was still in the closet.Page doesn't identify the actress by name, and we don't know if this person is out privately or publicly yet, so he refers to her in the book as “Ryan” which is how her number was saved in his phone.

According to Page, he and Ryan first met at a coffee shop in LA, and fell deeply in love while filming a movie together. “She was radiant – her dress, her smile, how she pushed her hair from her face … We discussed books, activism, our collective consciousness, and the deep intelligence of nature,” the book describes their first introduction, per .Page writes that not even his closest friends knew of the affair, and when Ryan took him home for Christmas to meet her family, Page was introduced as a friend. “Her parents did not know.

I was the friend that came for Christmas … We never touched outside, we barely went to dinner.”This content can also be viewed on the site it from.But Page also recalls the good times he and Ryan shared together, including the “discreet but adventurous sex.

On rocks, just below the Pacific Coast Highway, hidden in boulders in Joshua Tree National Park, on an airplane.” Once, Page says Ryan grabbed the book he was reading during an airport layover and, “began to write in the back sleeve, an outpouring of love, one of the most beautiful letters I have ever received.” Unfortunately, the relationship was unsustainable, and Page's heart was shattered when Ryan ended things, because she was—in Page's telling—unable to bear the “shame” of being seen as “queer.”This may be the most mysterious relationship Elliot Page describes in his jaw-dropper of a memoir, but it's far from the only surprise..
