Speaking of Kate, whom he met on the set of 'X-Men: Days of Future Past', the actor wrote in the excerpt: "The first person I fell for after my heart was broken was Kate Mara," who he added "had a boyfriend at the time, the lovely and talented Max Minghella."
As per 'Mirror.co.uk', the 'Umbrella Academy' star Elliot claimed that Kate told her at the time, "I never thought I could be in love with two people, and now I know I can."
Elliot added in the copy obtained by 'People' magazine: "This was right after I'd come out as gay, and it was a time of exploration and also heartbreak. I think my relationship, or whatever you want to call it with Kate, very much encapsulates a certain dynamic that I consistently found myself in, which was falling for people that -- I think a lot of us do this -- who aren't fully available. And the sort of safety in that and the highs and the lows and the serotonin bump, and then it goes away."
Kate has read Oscar-nominated Elliot's memoir and will be supporting him at a book release event later this month.

Elliot said that the "love and care that we have for each other is its own special thing... separate from the intimacy that I write about."
