*Neil Patrick Harris appeared on “The View” this week where he revealed that during the filming of “Clara’s Heart,” which was released in 1988 when he was 15 years old, Whoopi Goldberg offered to have sex with him in the future.
“You know, I did my first movie ever with Whoopi Goldberg in a movie called ‘Clara’s Heart’, and we worked together on that,” Harris recalled. “And she told me, she told me—I was what, 15, 16 years old. She told me on my last day of shooting that ten years—in ten years time—she was gonna have sex with me.”

Goldberg, 62, who sat at the opposite end of the table then quipped, “I might’ve!”
“He had many questions as a kid,” she explained, “so I said, ‘Listen, wait 10 years, and I’ll take you through it.’ In those days, you could actually have some fun like that. You can’t do that now. People get very upset now.”
Harris, who is an openly gay, married father of two, laughed it off by saying, “Hey, I was not offended. I’m looking forward to it.”

He also spoke on “The View” about the importance of National Coming Out Day and his own experience coming out as gay.
“When I came out, the ceiling didn’t crash in — I was able to stand taller and be more … transparent about who I was,” the actor told the co-hosts. “I didn’t have to be so guarded. And in turn, I think that allows your light to shine a little bit brighter.”
Harris has been married to his husband David Burtka since 2014. They have twins, Harper Grace Burtka-Harris and Gideon Scott Burtka-Harris, who turn eight years old this week, per gma.com.
“Some people… know who they are at a very, very early age —- and some people are married with kids and are still struggling with it,” Harris said. “There’s religious reasons, there’s political reasons, there’s familial reasons,” he noted of a person’s circumstances and how it affects when and how they come out.
