OP said they shipped them before they were revealed to be gay.

And, also sometimes, writers create chemistry between characters who aren't supposed to have it. And sometimes writers decide a character is gay halfway through when that hadn't always been the plan.

See: my fandom where even most of the straight male fans think that the male lead had more legit chemistry going on with the other male lead than with his actual canon female love interest.

Ooh, what fandom is that?

Could be nearly any fandom with more than one male lead, I guess apart from it being so strong even the straight male fans could see it and be unthreatened enough to admit it.

NAYRT - I don't know why, but I'm gonna guess Hawaii Five-O, just as a shot in the dark.

Often combined with the opposite problem - not creating chemistry between characters who are supposed to have it.
There are so many authors, for both gay and het romances, who seem to think that "tropes = chemistry", but the actual result is that the main romance doesn't seem to have an actual reason to get together.
