Renowned showbiz blogger Perez Hilton is known for keeping his personal life under wraps, but he hasn't hesitated to share some aspects of his life, especially when it comes to his family and relationships.

Regardless of his sexuality, Hilton has shown that he can achieve important milestones at his own pace. From finding the right partner to becoming a proud father of three children, his journey reflects his personal growth and happiness.

A Glimpse into Perez Hilton's Dating Life

Hilton has always maintained a high level of privacy when it comes to dating. Nonetheless, a 2013 Los Angeles Times article briefly shed light on his dating history, noting that he had been in just one relationship.

In 2018, Hilton revisited the topic of relationships twice, first in January and then again in May, on his YouTube channel. In January of that year, he opened up about a 22-year-old man who showed interest in him. He said:

"I really would love to hook up with him, and I know he wants to hook up with me, which is crazy because he's hot, oh my God."

At that time, Hilton shared that his personal goal was to seek intimacy, highlighting that it had been five years since his last romantic encounter. He playfully mentioned that in the gay community, this period can feel like an extended 35-year gap without intimacy.

Hilton briefly pondered the idea of skipping dating altogether and concentrating on rekindling meaningful connections with people from his past—a concept his therapist fully supports.

In May, he revealed he dated a much younger man but didn't disclose any identifying details. Hilton said he found the date enjoyable and even contemplated a potential future relationship with the person.

Hilton also acknowledged that, if given a choice, he hoped his child would be heterosexual, believing it could lead to an easier life.

Perez Hilton Is a Proud Dad of Three Kids

Hilton strongly believed that he would become a parent before turning 35. His prediction came true as fate would have it, and now he is navigating parenthood in what he called a "definitely unconventional" family.

He welcomed three children: a son named Mario and daughters Mia Alma and Mayte Amor. He proudly said all his kids share his genetic makeup, as they were each born through surrogacy using eggs from the same anonymous donor.

On why he opted for surrogacy instead of adopting, Hilton mentioned that having children with his DNA is a way to honor his late father. Hilton also revealed that his mother lives with them, adding that not many families can have that kind of opportunity.
