Alex P. Keaton's TV mom on "Family Ties" is gay.
That's what actress Meredith Baxter told this week's People magazine.
"I'm a lesbian mom," Baxter, who played Elyse Keaton on the popular 1980s sitcom, told the magazine. "I feel like I'm being honest for the first time."
Baxter, 62, said she started dating women several years ago, but before that, being gay "had never crossed my mind."
Baxter said three failed marriages led to several difficult years in her life.
"I was never comfortable with myself," she said. "That doesn't mean I was questioning."
The actress says she is in a long-term relatioship with contractor Nancy Locke, and that her five kids all know, and support her.

Ok, 3 failed relationships doesn’t mean you need to start batting for the other team. What happens when the lesbo thing doesn’t work out? Dogs?
Meredith honey, there are worse things than being alone. Find something else to do with your time other than trying to get laid.
