Maren Morris, the Grammy-winning singer, shared significant personal news during the weekend's Pride Month celebrations. On Instagram, Morris publicly identified as bisexual for the first time, stating, "Happy to be the B in LGBTQ+. Happy pride."
Morris has been a longtime ally to the LGBTQ+ community. In 2022, she collaborated with GLAAD, an LGBTQ media advocacy organization, and Trans Lifeline to support transgender youth, following social media criticism for her defense of trans individuals. She also appeared as a guest judge on "RuPaul’s Drag Race," where she expressed regret for the historical exclusion within country music and voiced her admiration for the contestants.
In 2023, Morris ended her marriage with fellow singer-songwriter Ryan Hurd, with whom she shares a young son.
