Americas sweetheart who played 3-year-old Olivia on the 1980s sitcom “The Cosby Show,” came out of the closet and openly stated that she is a lesbian. “I am very happy that gay marriage is opening up around the country and is being accepted,” the actress said in a statement through her representatives. “I was excited to hear today that more states legalized gay marriage. I, however am not currently getting married, but it is great to know I can now, should I wish to,” she said. Earlier Friday, Symone posted a tweet: “I can finally get married! Yay government! So proud of you.” In response to media inquiries after that tweet, her representatives said that “Raven is not getting married. She was just supporting the fact that she heard on NPR that more states legalized gay marriage today.”
