Harvey and Charles are usually a tight team … but Michael Rapaport‘s “Traitors” comments stirred up some trouble in paradise — with the two men passionately debating on “TMZ Live.”
Our two colleagues discussed the reaction to Rapaport claiming Colton Underwood — a gay man who was looking for a wife on “The Bachelor” while he was still in the closet — would be an incredible secret-keeper … and that received quite a negative reaction from his costars. Michael later apologized to Colton.

Check out the clip … Harvey’s actually stepping up for Michael here — telling Charles that he thinks Michael’s referring to Colton keeping the secret from millions of people on national TV.
Harvey also points out that he’s a gay man who was in the closet himself for many years … and he isn’t offended by the exchange at all — adding he’s got no issue if anyone wants to say he’s also a good secret-keeper because of his own time in the closet.
To be clear, Harvey doesn’t think anyone should be forced to be in the closet … but, he does think it builds up one’s ability to keep secrets.
Charles tells Harvey he still thinks it’s a homophobic statement … and, if in Michael’s position, he would never say anything like that to Harvey or anyone else. He thinks it’s too close to mocking someone for not feeling comfortable living their truth out loud.
