People say that Grand Moff Tarkin is gay and had an affair with a male stormtrooper on the Death Star. Is this true?

Yes, only Canon Tarkin, though. Tarkin was even going to get TK-421 and his mouse droid shipped off of the Death Star for safety but that unfortunately for them that never came to fruition.
Sounds like I'm going to have some deep thoughts about this subject that will keep me up at night.
That storyline comes from the first From a Certain Point of View.
Wasn’t aware of that
Ah, yes, here he is, TK-421. I personally think the story of this character is quite odd, and I think that the relationship between him and Tarkin should be Legends, not Canon. Reading TK-421’s story completely changed my opinion of Grand Moff Tarkin. And not in a good way.
It comes from a story that is considered semi-canon
@Atat2009 Not sure if you mean this, but I do think the story's decision to show a more empathetic side of Tarkin is interesting if nothing else. We know him more formally as cold and rather unempathetic, so him showing any degree of care for anything is uncharacteristic. (Though, the loss of his son is, iirc, what led him to cracking down on being so cold and strict in Legends).
@SheevBespin FACPOV stories are generally considered fully canon.
I prefer Legends Tarkin
