Who Is Mojtaba Khamenei’s Alleged Gay Partner? Trump Says CIA Informed Him Of Claims About Iran’s Supreme Leader’s Long-Term Relationship With A Man (AI Generated Image)
US President Donald Trump has alleged that the American intelligence briefings contained sensitive and controversial information about the personal life of the new Supreme Leader in Iran, Mojtaba Khamenei. In an interview with Fox News published on March 26, Trump stated that he was informed Khamenei could be gay and that this would be considered a bad beginning in a nation such as Iran, where there are very strict laws and harsh punishment to the LGBTQ+ community. The speculation was further triggered by Trump earlier in the week who hinted that Khamenei was simply unavailable, which cast more doubts on his health and his lack of presence in the public.
Intelligence reports, one of which was by the New York Post, leaked to Trump reported a long term personal connection between Khamenei and a man who may have been his childhood tutor. The report has cited sources that the information was sourced by very secure intelligence channels, although no verification to the same has been published. Other claims indicated that Khamenei could have exhibited some weird behavior in the course of recovery of injuries inflicted in recent airstrikes, although such allegations are yet to be proven and have been controversial.
Other older intelligence material is also mentioned, such as a 2008 WikiLeaks cable, which said Khamenei had visited London several times on personal health matters, and was relatively late in marrying. Although this information has re-emerged in the modern discourse, it is not publicly proved that any supposed long term partner actually existed and who. Altogether, the arguments are founded on the intelligence leaks and media coverage, and the Iranian authorities do not confirm the information officially, which is why the story is an object of speculation rather than a fact.
Mojtaba Khamenei, the new Supreme Leader of Iran has been under the hot light of the international community after the death of his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in the US-Israeli airstrikes on February 28, 2026. Different foreign media have reported that Mojtaba was injured during the attacks and evacuated to Moscow where he took medical treatment with some sources even indicating that he underwent surgery in Moscow. A report quoted by one of the Kuwait newspapers stated that the Russian President Vladimir Putin himself offered specialised treatment, and Khamenei was flown to a safe centre near the Russian presidential palace on a Russian military aircraft.
But the Iranian and Russian leaders have kept a lid over it or rather dismissed such allegations. Spokesperson of the Kremlin, Dmitry Peskov refused to confirm that Khamenei was hospitalized in Moscow and stated that he was not going to comment on news reports. Meanwhile, the Iranian ambassador to Russia refuted the evacuation story saying it was part of psychological warfare, and that the role of the supreme leader is among his nationals, not in other countries. The foreign ministry at Tehran likewise claimed that Mojtaba was fine, but had been wounded, although there was no confirmation that he was transferred to Russia or treated.
The uncertainty over the state of Khamenei has only added to speculation and anxiety. US and allied intelligence agencies are keeping a close watch on his health and whereabouts because it is not known where exactly Mojtaba Khamenei has been in the past because he has neither stepped out nor given any speeches or done any face to face interactions with anyone leading to doubts as to whether or not he was fit to lead during the current conflict. Although there has been uncertainty, Russia has still highlighted its backing of Iran under the leadership of Mojtaba and diplomatic relations between Moscow and Tehran are going on as the tensions between the two countries continue to increase.
