“I’m not straight” – Married supermodel Lily Cole comes out as “queer”
Supermodel Lily Cole has come out as “queer” after revealing she is “not straight” and she wants to break the “rigid” boundaries of sexuality.
The model, 33, married entrepreneur Kwame Ferreira in 2012 and they have a five-year-old daughter named Wylde.
Cole opened up about her sexuality in her new book, Who Cares Wins: How to Protect the Planet You Love.
She explained that while she is a private person who likes to keep her personal life out of the public eye, she has felt the need to “acknowledge that she’s not straight”.
Cole has been linked to popular men such as actor Jude Law, British model David Gandy and Roxy Music singer Bryan Ferry, who is 42 years her senior.
She is rumoured to have briefly dated Jack Dorsey, founder of Twitter after he heard her speak passionately about global sharing at a conference.
