Eleanor Roosevelt’s sexuality was always very questionable. After Franklin’s well known affair, Eleanor didn’t feel the same towards him. It was said that after the affair she really didn’t love him anymore and she was just in the marriage for her kids and the public eye. Eleanor always had a special thing for women. She was known as the first lady of the world and she would make rallies for women all of that and she must’ve grown a different interest in women. The woman said to be Eleanor to be her lover was Lorena Hickok. There was said that over 3,500 letters and many were destroyed by Lorena. Eleanor would write how much she wantd to hold her and kiss her but couldn’t. This is some of the many letters Eleanor sent her: “Hick darling, All day I've thought of you & another birthday I will be with you, & yet tonite you sounded so far away & formal. Oh! I want to put my arms around you. I ache to hold you close. Your ring is a great comfort to me. I look at it and think she does love me, or I wouldn't be wearing it. “

and this one is from Lorena to Eleanor:
“I remember your eyes, with a kind of teasing smile in them, and the feeling of that soft spot just northeast of the corner of your mouth against my lips." Lorena concluded that letter with, "Good night, dear one. I want to put my arms around you and kiss you at the corner of your mouth. And in a little more than a week now--I shall!"

In her entire lifetime she never came out saying she was a lesbian or a bisexual. But after her death the truth came out of her love affair with Lorena. It wasn’t just a rumor because all of those letters are the proof.
