Am I the Asshole?

My son came out as gay yesterday on his birthday. After he came out, I said that I knew, then he mentioned a few key moments that gave away he liked boys and said that I love him and always will, but he seems to be hurt, and said that coming out gave him anxiety, and that I should have said that I knew he was gay. is there something wrong with me? maybe I could be the asshole for being cold in my response by saying I knew he was gay? how should I have come about this. As a single father I should have seen the signs and should have tread water lightly. I’m not sure🤔. What are your thoughts on the situation??
