Is Kelvin Gay in 'The Righteous Gemstones'? Season 3 tells all. As the youngest of the three Gemstone siblings, Kelvin often tries to prove himself in the eyes of his pastor daddy and two older siblings. Spoiler alert! Revelations are a-coming in the final two episodes of The Righteous Gemstones Season 3. The popular HBO series follows the eponymous Gemstone family of megachurch pastors who navigate the trials and tribulations of their glamorous form of Christian worship and the controversy seeded within.
Like his siblings, Kelvin has his own house in the Gemstone compound. While Jesse and Judy share their homes with their significant others, Kelvin lives with his former Satanist friend, Keefe (Tony Cavalero). Their unconventional relationship must have made you wonder whether Kelvin is gay. Here is what you need to know about it. SPOILERS AHEAD. By Alison Herman. TV Critic. He then channeled his barely repressed desires into leading the God Squad, a homoerotic tribe of body builders, and started the Smut Busters, a gang of vigilante, sex-negative prudes.
Keefe is ostensibly converted to Christianity, but after two long seasons of homoerotic teasing and clever blocking, it’s clear by now that he wants nothing more than true intimacy with Kelvin. Finally, the most romantic relationship on The Righteous Gemstones gets its moment in the spotlight. Among all the Gemstone family couples, Kelvin Adam Devine and Keefe Tony Cavalero have always been the two people who seemed to genuinely enjoy being around each other the most, with no hidden agenda. Kelvin just decides now is the time and kisses Keefe out in the open, with no fear or hesitation.
I’d love to see a storyline about how the Gemstone family reacts to Kelvin possibly being gay. The Gemstone family ministry is Southern Baptist, and that’s generally not an LGBTQ-affirming denomination of Christianity. He is the only one among the Gemstone siblings who is neither married nor in a relationship. In various interviews, DeVine has described his character as a man-child. Like his siblings, Kelvin has his own house in the Gemstone compound.
