Kit Connor came out as bisexual – though not on his own accord.
On Oct. 31, the Heartstopper star called out social media users who had been accusing him of queerbaiting, a term used to describe people who lean into suspicion that they may be queer in hopes of attracting attention and publicity. In a tweet, Connor slammed the allegations and wrote, “i’m bi. congrats for forcing an 18 year old to out himself.”
