More Than Porn – Jesse Jackman and Dirk Caber

Faith & Religion, LGBTI Community, Society & Culture

WORLD EXCLUSIVE:

In this exclusive interview with Dean, exgay survivor Jesse Jackman, reveals the struggles he had reconciling his faith and sexuality and for the first time publicly discusses his suicide attempt in 2009.

Currently touring Australia with his fiancée Dirk Caber, Jackman is acutely conscious of the tragic-porn-star stereotype, but he believes that his experience is not unique to those in the porn industry.

Although hesitant to reveal such personal information, he felt it was important to share his story in order to highlight the importance of seeking good professional help.

The incident took place prior to him starting in the porn industry and resulted in Jackman being hospitalised.

Today Jesse and Dirk are among the most sought-after gay porn actors in the world and madly in love.
