Husband sulking as I am meeting gay male friend.

Help me understand this.
I have a male friend who i used to work with who is also gay. Although he was married to a woman in the past and has kids.
We no longer work in the same place but when we did he used to give me lifts to places and generally provide me with loads of support. We got on really well. He's a lot more experienced in the job than I am.
He's having a hard time at the moment (very ill partner) and I arranged to meet him next week for a coffee and a catch up. I had planned to take my child as well so my husband could work.
So mention this to husband and he's NOT Happy. As far as I can see it can only be jealousy (bizarre as my friend is gay) or out and out homophobia. He has said he will look after our child as he doesn't want her to go.
Now he's quiet and withdrawn and clearly in the huff with me.
What the actual fuck?

There's no positive spin to put on it; you're married to a jealous homophobe
