Pacifickarma is right. There is more to this story. I was a member of that fanclub for a few years. The truth is that her friend Barb who ran the fanclub, took the money of the members and ran off with it. The members paid money to become a member, but they didn't hear anything back. After a while also older members stopped receiving their magazine, even after paying for it. Robert did hear about all this and I am sure that this is what made him mad. I am sure that he cared about the fans and that he felt sorry that they were ripped off by Barb. Furthermore, it put him in a very bad light. There might even be more to the story I am not aware of. But as you can see there are two sides. Robert in this case is not the one to be blamed.

Barbara did not run off with any money and she sent out all the newsletters that were due to the members. She even ran fundraisers for him and Robert was very happy with all her work so don't go telling lies that she ran off with any money. Robert owes her one hell of an apology for his arrogance. Barb had another newsletter due to go out when he called her and chewed her out for things she was not behind. Stop lying about Barb and I am going to let her know what you have been saying about her. I've known Barb for many years and she was and still is a very honest person. The woman who ran Roxann's club stole the money from that club but Barb never stole anything from Robert or his club and where did she supposed to have run off to? She has a hubby and a daughter.
Robert was booking cons in Europe behind his agents back and he was the one making a111cll the long distant calls trying to track him down but Barb was accused of those calls. This info came right from his agent and he demanded an apology from Robert to Barb but she never got it and she never did a thing to hurt him and Barb is the only one who ran that club too. All but the last newsletter went out and the last one never made the printers due to the nasty phone calls she got from Robert. -

My interest is in clearing a friends name who is being called a thief when she never did a think to Robert but treat him with total respect. The last Christmas the club was around, Barb had sent Robert 2 large boxes of gifts from the club members and the only way she received these gifts is thru the newsletters that went out. The fan response to this idea was fantastic and when he got the boxes he called Barb and couldn't stop thanking her enough. He even suggested in a fun way he's like this to be done again next Christmas. Sadly there are a couple people out there and we more or less know who they are slandered Barb's name with Robert and he believed them. If a member didn't get a newsletter, blame the post office, not Barb and when one was late for what ever reason, she notifed the members it would be late and this was rare. Robert's agent was also behind part of this mess and that part was cleared up. Robert would call Barb at times and other times she would call him and they were on fantistic terms and then all hell broke loose and the calls that May she got were ones no one should ever get. What makes me mad is that fans out there have slandered her name not only with Robert but with other fans and I just want fans to know she did nothing to Robert but show deep kindness and respect and they were friends for 4 years. Her call came to me about this mess right before I was leaving for the Seatrek cruise and it was not something I needed to deal with at that time. I also had the chance to speck with fan members of other clubs when I was on that trip and a couple of the people who ran another club became suspects and the reason I say this is due to what I was told. They wanted to run the club their way and they were determined to take over at any cost. The cost was Barb's name being ruined.
I just went thru hell with the post office over a package from Ohio that never showed up after almost a month so the company replaced it and I had that about 10 days later. A friend of mine who works for the post office told me there is so much theft going on and sometimes things are just thrown to the side and forgotten about. She has seen it where she works and being a supervisor, she has had some things to deal with she wished never happened so if newsletters didn't make it, blame the post office not Barb. -

Wow! I thought this thread was about whether or not Robert is married and it has degenerated into this? Really, I highly doubt there is anyone visiting this message board, rabid fan or casually observer, who is at all interested in hearing you repeat this "tale" over and over again. There are three sides to every story - his, hers and the truth, which is typically somewhere in the middle in any "dispute". Since this did not happen directly to you it seems that you are only continuously bringing this up to feed some personal need to stir the proverbial pot regardless of your assertions you are "only clearing a friend's name". I would think it is well time to let this go. Any reasonable person would have done so by now.

I am sorry but Barb is being bad mouthed on other boards when she did nothing wrong and I am sick of it and so is she. Barb has decided to let me handle things since she is fed up with all the lies about her and that's all they are, lies. And yes it does affect me as well as her other friends when someone is being hu2000rt. Do you let your friends be hurt and just do nothing? I doubt it.

I'm not married either, but I'm not gay. I'm enjoying all the bees that visit my flower too much to settle down with one person, thank you very much VBG I also don't want children the way the world is, so filled with hate. Just because a person isn't married doesn't mean they're gay :rolleyes:

How in the world did this question ever come up? Anyone who has seen even a
fraction of his work would have no doubt whatsoever that this gorgeous man is
100% straight!! Shame on you for such slander! Thank you, Pacific Karma for your comments & for setting this right.
Apparently anyone who thinks otherwise should re-examine their own sexuality.
Robert is one of the sexiest actors I have ever seen & it is an insult to him for this thread to have ever started!
I am watching over him and will defend him always! -

Saying he's straight based on his work? That's called ACTING!!!!!
D U H
And, nowadays saying someone might be gay isn't slander. (Except to Tom Cruise, who seems to sue at the drop of a hat over that stuff.)
Not that I think Robert Beltran is gay. Just saying that you can't find any true clues to someones sexuality based up their ACTING roles. -

I would have to agree with him not being gay. I happened to be in attendance at SFX 2007 in Toronto this August and while I was waiting for him to return to the autograph table, Robert took several minutes to have a nice and intimate conversation with two teenage girls who happened to walk by. Based on my vantage point, 10 feet away, he certainly did seem to be enjoying their company and vice versa.
Marriage-wise, I just checked my con photos and he was not wearing a wedding ring, or any other rings on either hand. -

What a stupid thread. One user is all pissed because Beltran shut down his/their fan club.
Well.. Especially TV actors pay a heavy price for fame. It is easy to get type cast and never work again.
I skipped to the end so I might be talking out of my butt here.. BUT if the Fan Club wasn't approved of by Robert.. he has a right to stop it. It is also bad form to start one without permission.
It wouldn't surprise me if Robert was gay considering how hyper PC Voyager was. No matter what his sexual preference is.. he is fine actor and deserved a better role than he got on Voyager.
All to often Fans cross the line.
