Thanks for flagging.
I don't think the source can constitute Martin being openly LGBT+; the source says he is the honorary president and that he is a "champion" for LGBT+ people. That doesn't mean he is in LGBT+.
I've done some further searches for any other sources that might be relevant and contain some kind of open statement from Martin. Unfortunately I can't find any at the moment. If he is LGBT+, I suspect that it will come up in public domain information or contributions in parliament in due course.
I will leave this addition 'open' for now, pending further information.
I've found a video from 4 years ago where he is stated to be the President of LGBT+ Labour Scotland: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=294925735250029.
I've found the up to date version of the LGBT+ Labour Commitee and all of the Honorary Presidents are all openly LGBT+, so I would be surprised if Martin Rhodes would have been made an honorary president, having served as president, if he wasn't openly LGBT+: https://lgbtlabourscotland.laboursites.org/category/the-committee/
