Born in 1480 Vimercate Italy, Gian Giacomo Caprotti da Oreno, better known as Salai was a pupil of the Renaissance master Leonardo da Vinci. The nickname Salai is a contracted form of Saladino (Saladin in Italian). Leonardo da Vinci referred to Gian Giacomo by that nickname - since he was a child - as a joke, because he had a terrible temperament: As dangerous as Saladin. As an infidel (because Saladin was not Catholic), and therefore by extension a demon or devil.
Although not many people know about him, Salai was an important part of Leonardo da Vincis personal and artistic life.

That is the thickest Italian accent I've ever heard

I would say they were lovers but both were Bi sexual not fully gay . As they both had children.

It’s a myth. The cited source is a fictional stage work from Lomazzo long after Leonardo’s death.
