Elizabeth Smart’s father, Ed Smart, has came out as gay.
Andy took to his Facebook to announce to his news, but soon deleted his post.
Ed wrote “Lois has been a loyal wife, and extraordinary mother, who has had to endure an impossible part of this journey. I deeply regret the excruciating pain this has caused her. Hurting her was never my intent. While our marriage will end, my love for Lois and everyone in my family is eternal.”
Ed revealed that he would also will be divorcing his wife Lois Smart.
Even though Ed is still part of the LDS Church, he wrote that he was going to leave their church, adding “As an openly gay man, the church is not a place where I find solace any longer. It is not my responsibility to tell the church, its members or its leadership what to believe about the rightness or wrongness of being LGBTQ.”
Andy Smart is the father of Elizabeth Smart, who was kidnapped in 2002 when she was just 14, from her window by a man that the family tried to help by giving him a job.
David Mitchell and his wife were arrested and sent to prison.
