no, he was accused of sodomy but the charges were dropped due to lack of evidence and witnesses.

it isn't found that da vinci had a partner of any sort. He was probably too focused on his work and travelling everywhere to have a love interest anyways

Other Wikianswers contributors have said:

Historians believe that he was gay due to the close relationships he had with his male pupils and mentors. Due to the fact that da Vinci worked so closely with the church and that he lived in a very puritanical society, it is believed that he was known to be homosexual in society but was not persecuted as he kept his private life secret.

What is known for certain is that he was charged with sodomy (along with three other young men) when he was young, but he was acquitted. Additionally, he never married despite being a well-respected genius and thus must have been a highly sought after bachelor. Plus, art historians believe the softness and androgyny of his male subjects is indicative of his sexuality. Finally, he spent most of his lifetime sharing living quarters with assistants or pupils who were, in some cases, known to be homosexual.

Nobody knows. There are no records of any sexual interest, male or female. There is only one record concerning Leonardo's sexual life, which is an accusation of sodomy made in 1476. The charges were dropped based on a technicality.

He wasn't charged for being gay. He was charged for the act of sodomy. Florentine court records of 1476 show that Leonardo and three other young men were charged with sodomy but acquitted.
