Personal Life
Jan Werner's sexual orientation was throughout his career the subject of much talk and many rumors. Jan Werner never gave a clear answer when reporters asked about this. But in the book published in 2007, Werner`s father Thor Egil Danielsen says that Jan Werner was not bisexual, gay or heterosexual. "Werner's unresolved sexual orientation characterized his life. It was problematic for him. He never took any final choice between women and men, simply because he could not. It was the truth, that the press was always looking for. He told us that it had nothing to do with gender, but that he fell in love with people," writes his father in the book.
During 2003 and 2004 his health condition and finances deteriorated. According to his father, the debt and money problems gave Jan Werner anxiety, and the first serious anxiety attack came during a summer show in 2003 in Tønsberg. Jan Werner struggled with performance anxiety and very high expectations of himself.
