I have a secret hobby that I have kept hidden from my circle of friends and family












0














When I was browsing internet. I saw this sentence. I have a doubt on the usage of
"have kept hidden"
What tense is it?
Is it Active voice of present perfect? If so why there is a word "hidden" which is the past participle form of hide?



Is it passive voice of present perfect? If so, why they are using "kept" instead of been?
