American actor Roger Bart was born on 29 September 1962 in Bernardsville, New Jersey. He is the son of a chemical engineer and a teacher while his uncle is a renowned journalist and film producer, Peter Bart. Roger, age 56, earned his BFA in Acting in 1985 from Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers, which is the State University of New Jersey.
Is He Gay?
There have been countless assumptions made on Roger’s sexuality. People often end up to the conclusion of him being gay. There is a very convincing reason behind the gay speculations.
The obvious reason is his portrayal as a gay in two movies. In The Producers, Roger played as Carmen Ghia. His character was a gay man, who appeared alongside his partner, Roger De Bris. Roger’s gay partner in The Producers was portrayed by Gary Beach.

If that wasn’t enough, Roger added another gay character to his television credits. He played as a flamboyant gay named Roger Bannister in The Stepford Wives. He also had his gay partner, Jerry, who was represented by David Marshall Grant.
Considering everything, it was only feasible for people to make speculations on him being gay. But, sadly for the gay men out there, Roger is not gay.
Roger's Wife & Children
When it comes to Roger’s romantic affairs, they are not fairytales. He often juggles his way between different women. While he never had a wife, he got blessed with two children. He has two daughters, 32-year-old Ali Kendal, and 17-year-old Eller Vereen. His first daughter came from the relationship he had with Jennifer Kendall.

Another blessing hit his way when he welcomed his second daughter, Eller in 2001 with Shalyi Vereen. Roger and Shalyi didn’t have a long-term relationship. Shalyi was raising Eller as a single mother. Unfortunately, Shalyi passed away in November 2016. And Eller did her best to honor her mother for donating her organs.
Roger helps with his daughters’ education and life expenses as well.
Coming back to the topic of Roger’s possible wife, he once romantically involved himself with YouTuber, Trisha Paytas for two years. And the relationship only made it to the spotlight in 2015.
Apparently, Roger was already in a relationship with another woman for five years. The woman confronted Trisha at a Halloween party and told her that she had been Roger’s ‘other woman’ for two years. Trisha also claimed that Roger ended their relationship over email, as he wrote, ‘Hey Trish, do yourself a favor and never contact me again.’
As of now, there hasn't been any talk on Roger’s romantic affairs. People are speculating that he is secretly married because of his escalating age. But his married status is well-hidden.
