Country Singer Maren Morris Comes Out As Bisexual Post-Divorce
In a bold move that rocked the country music scene, Maren Morris publicly came out as bisexual on social media, sharing her message during Pride Month with the post: “Happy to be the B in LGBTQ+, happy pride!” This announcement follows her recent divorce from fellow musician Ryan Hurd and has sparked renewed interest in her advocacy for LGBTQ+ rights.
Morris has long embraced LGBT issues, often clashing with the more conservative aspects of country music. Her defense of taking her son to a drag show drew both praise and criticism, and she made headlines in 2023 with a fiery response to anti-drag legislation in Tennessee, urging authorities to “f***ing arrest” her during a concert.
In a recent interview, Morris expressed her frustration with the country music industry’s shift toward a conservative, hyper-masculine ethos, criticizing what she called “butt rock” and the celebration of misogyny and homophobia.
Her journey highlights the importance of authenticity and self-expression in an industry resistant to change. As she navigates her personal and professional life, Morris remains unafraid to speak her truth, using her platform to advocate for change and inspire others.
