Jimbo has never been married, and his sole companion is his lifelong lover, Ned Gerblansky, who is depicted in "Jakovasaurs" roaming around Jimbo's house wearing scant underpants and an open-toed red dressing robe, which Jimbo appears to be quite OK with. They have a close relationship, and it seems likely that they are either married or living together. Now, there is some evidence to suggest that Jimbo may be gay, but this is not confirmed. For example, in one episode he expresses a fondness for long dinosaurs tails, which some fans have interpreted as a gay reference. However, this is just one of many jokes made by the show about its characters' sexuality, so such references cannot be taken seriously. Furthermore, LGBT+ characters have appeared on other shows to great acclaim, such as Matt Bomer's Jody Slater on _American Beauty_ and Stephen Fry's Sir Ian McKellen's Lord Hamlet on _BBC One_. So it would be wrong to assume that simply because Jimbo appears to like long dinosaur tails, he must be gay. In fact, there are several reasons why someone might appear to be gay but actually be straight.
