Iran’s new supreme leader, Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, is believed by American intelligence estimates to be gay, the New York Post reported Monday.

According to the report, President Donald Trump was briefed on Khamenei’s suspected homosexuality, which was mentioned in the context of an assessment of the new Iranian leader.

During the briefing, the president was informed that despite Mojtaba’s involvement for years in assisting his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, in governing, the elder Khamenei had serious reservations about tapping his son to be his heir.

One of the primary reasons for the previous supreme leader’s anxiety, according to US intelligence, was his awareness of Mojtaba’s homosexuality.

The revelation stunned Trump, who reportedly laughed out loud during the briefing, according to sources cited in the report.

Other officials present in the room at the time of the briefing are said to have found the matter “hilarious,” with a number of people laughing along with Trump.

One senior intelligence official “has not stopped laughing about it for days,” a source said.

Three separate sources, including two intelligence officials and one close to the White House, confirmed that American spy agencies view the assessment of Mojtaba as a homosexual as credible.

Two sources told the Post that Mojtaba has been in a longterm romantic relationship with his childhood male tutor.

Another source said Mojtaba has been having an affair with a man once employed by the Khamenei family.

According to yet another source, Mojtaba has also made “aggressive” sexual advances toward multiple men assigned to care for him.

A source told the Post that the reports on the 56-year-old cleric’s homosexuality were “derived from one of the most protected sources that the government has.”

Earlier reports cited a State Department file on Mojtaba that noted he did not get married until the age of 30 – relatively late for a Shi’ite cleric – stating that this was likely due to an “impotency problem” that was “eventually resolved” during extended visits to three British hospitals for treatment.

The leaked intel file indicated that Mojtaba made a fourth visit for treatment before his wife conceived their first child. The couple’s first child, Mohamed Amin, was born eight years after their marriage.
