Glee alum Alex Newell supported a former boyfriend amid a brain tumor diagnosis before allegedly finding out that he was unfaithful.
“[My love life is] non-existent,” Newell, 32, said on the Tuesday, May 20, episode of the “LadyGang” podcast. “Last year, I was in a relationship. It was so cute, so good [and] so gorgeous until he got a brain tumor.”
Newell, who never publicly identified their beau at the time, added that their then-partner had “a benign brain tumor” that required treatment.
“He did all the chemo and the radiation and then decided that he wanted to cheat on me,” the Tony-winning actor claimed.

Newell’s former Glee costar Becca Tobin, who cohosts “LadyGang” with Keltie Knight and Jac Vanek, had her own thoughts about the actor’s relationship update.
“You stood by that man’s side with a brain tumor, and then he had the nerve to cheat on you?” Tobin, 39, quipped. “How’d you find out?”
According to Newell, they found out about their now-ex’s alleged infidelity through Venmo transactions.
“I am a modern-day P.I.,” Newell said. “He kept Venmoing the person for, like, different things like camping trips and dinners and things like that. It was around Christmas that I was like, ‘Where are you?’ And he was like, ‘I’m on a retreat.’ Come to find out, no, he was just camping with this other person.”
According to Newell, their partner had been sending transactions with questionable titles.

“There were, like, heart emojis and things like that,” Newell alleged. “I’m not sending heart emojis to my friends for, like, a transaction.”
Newell has not been in further touch with their currently unidentified ex after they went their separate ways.
“He blocked me [on Instagram] and I blocked him back,” the Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist alum stated. “I am famous, so he does have to see me.”
Newell, meanwhile, hasn’t looked back since ending their relationship and has stayed booked and busy with a steady stream of projects. Fresh off their historic Tony win as the first nonbinary honoree in 2023, Newell recently starred as Leading Player in Pippen’s anniversary concert in London after acting in Prime Video’s Another Simple Favor.
“It was a labor of love,” Newell exclusively told Us Weekly in March of the concert. “It’s funny, because I was supposed to play the Leading Player my junior year in high school. And I couldn’t because I was filming Glee … so it became a show that I really wanted to do. [The excitement] was very palpable in the theater. I think that’s what made it so special. Everyone was, like, hungry for it.”
