Tyler Posey came out as queer and in the best relationship with a woman.
The Teen Wolf star recently shared about his sexuality and how his girlfriend, Phem, has supported him since they started dating in February.
During an interview with NME, “I’ve been with everybody under the sun. And right now I’m in the best relationship that I’ve ever been in with a woman, and she’s queer too.”
He continued, “She’s helped me realize that I fit under the queer umbrella and that I’m sexually fluid, I guess…No, not ‘I guess.’ I don’t want anyone to take this [interview] and be, like ‘Well, he was kind of wishy-washy about it.'”
In October, the actor also revealed that he was sexually fluid though he admitted that his announcement wasn’t exactly well-received.
“Someone asked if I’d been with men [as well as women], and I said yes,” he told NME. “Since then there’s been this really loud person online—I’m pretty sure it’s only one person—and they’re trying to call me a ‘gay-baiter’: pretending to be gay to get money, essentially.”
The MTV star said he’s been receiving negative messages but there are times when they get cruel. He shared that some of these comments have been too much and involved his mom who died in December 2014 due to breast cancer.
He shared about one user, “And [the troll] made this one comment that kind of sparked me wanting to do something about cyberbullying. They said: ‘I killed your mother’—like, this person actually claimed they killed my mother.”
He added, “But I know that other people who deal with this kind of s–t may not be as strong mentally.”
Tyler also talked to The Rundown where he revealed, “OnlyFans is bizarre. It’s really, sort of mentally draining. You really feel like an object on OnlyFans. I’m trying my hardest to be artistic as possible with the content I put out ’cause I don’t want it to just be porn, you know? That’s not what I do and I don’t want to take it away from the people that are doing that. I just want to be artistic and stay in touch with my fans.”
Is he willing to bare everything on the platform? He said, “If I’m going to be somewhat nude, I want to not take myself seriously and be kind of funny. I just can’t pose naked and take myself seriously. It’s weird, it feels stupid, I feel like an object. I’m still figuring out my footing in it and we’ll see where it goes.”
