John laurens was gay

John Laurens was probably gay. In a letter his father, Henry Laurens, wrote to James Grant, he states that Master Jack (Laurens) is “too closely wedded to his studies to think about any of Miss Nanny’s.”.

The musical Hamilton features the close relationship between Alexander Hamilton (Lin-Manuel Miranda) and John Laurens (Anthony Ramos), but there are some historical suggestions that the pair also had a love affair.
