Yes,she was. She is most associated with her role as Alice,the maid on the mega-hit tv series "The Brady Bunch" of the 1960's.Never married and never having children; Hollywood insiders knew she was a lesbian.This in a time when sexuality was never publicly discussed and people were rarely open or candid about their sexuality,particularly if it was not strictly heterosexual. And of course,there was no such thing as being "Out" as we know it today. Being gay in those days was extremely shameful,even criminal in a homophobic,ignorant and intolerant world. Davis was known to say she had absolutely no interest in men romantically within inside circles and preferred the company of women.She died at age 88 suddenly in 2014 in hospital after a fall in her bathroom.

Unknown. You can find online comments that she was but there is nothing to collaborate those stories.
Ann B. Davis was supposedly a celibate lesbian. But there is no proof to back this up. She never discussed her sexuality.

She was a member of the Episcopal Church. A Christian church based in the USA which demands equality for homosexuals and legalised gay marriage.

It would just be speculation that she was a lesbian. She did fit the typical lesbian stereotype though, butch demeanor,never married, lived alone and was never associated romantically with anyone. Some trash rags hint at closeted Hollywood including Ms Davis who kept her private life a secret.
