Lindayag is currently based in New York in the US, where same-sex marriage is legal. Getting married to someone of the same sex has been recognized under the state’s Marriage Equality Act since 2011.
The actor made headlines after revealing in April 2024 that he is positive for HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), in hopes of curbing the stigma associated with the virus. He was diagnosed in 2017.
“In late 2017, I was diagnosed as positive for HIV. And I had to take a break from work. I was trying to find an avenue to rest my body physically when I saw the auditions for Ateneo Blue Repertory’s ‘Rent’ in 2018,” he said. “We have to know these things. Education is power. Knowledge is power. You can live a full life and be a person like me who lives like everyone else because I took that test.” /edv
