Singer Daya has opened up about her sexuality on Instagram, all to celebrate National Coming Out Day.
The 19-year-old “Hide Away” musician revealed over the weekend that she was happily dating girlfriend Clyde Munroe and came out as bisexual.
“All I gotta say is follow your gut and don’t feel like you owe any sort of explanation to anyone,” Daya writes to her fans. “Your sexuality is yours only so build with it at a pace that works for you. I’m proud to be a bisexual member of the LGBTQ community with a girl I love who makes me feel more like me every day.”
She continues, “The support has been beyond and though it wasn’t always easy I also recognize how privileged I am to have had so much of it, so I especially wanna be there for those of u who aren’t surrounded by the most accepting family/friends/communities.”
“Stay authentic, talk thru it with people u trust, know you’re loved and that I’m thinking of u,” Daya added. “That’s my long post of the month love yall be gay be free be wild n love lots xo.”
