Every Star Who Came Out as LGBTQ+ in 2023

Australian singer and actor Natalie Bassingthwaighte revealed she is in a relationship with a woman.

In a November 18 interview with Stellar podcast, Something To Talk About, she said: “I am in a beautiful relationship with a woman who makes my heart smile and makes me really happy.”

“I wanted to be able to do it in my time when I was ready and speak my truth when I was ready…I felt a bit threatened, and look, I get journalism I understand and have been so supported, so much, over the years, but I felt this particular time, I was backed into a corner a little bit. It was like, ‘Give me a quote or we’re going to print the story. We know that you’re in a new relationship with a woman – we know who it is – we won’t talk about that, but will you give us a quote?’

“And that felt very threatening to me because that was something that I’ve been private about because it’s been new for me, and new for my family, and a new discovery for me of feeling into my own skin for the first time in my life,” she added. “I wasn’t outed. But the threat was there, and it was very overwhelming.”
