The X Factor champion Matt Terry has bravely stepped into the spotlight once again, this time revealing a deeply personal aspect of his life and opening up about his sexuality
Matt Terry, the winner of The X Factor 's 13th series, has come out as gay. In an interview with the Gay Times, Matt shared the inner turmoil he faced while concealing his sexuality, admitting: "I'm very proud , and I'm no longer afraid."
The singer now hopes to convey his journey through his music, particularly in his new song His Car, in which he apologises for his past secrecy. He explained how it was "the only song I've struggle to record" due to the power ballad's poignant meaning. "I said to him, ‘You’re not allowed to tell anyone about this’ and he loved me enough to do so. Six, seven, years later, I realise that’s not something we should be doing, and it’s not something you should ask somebody."
He told The Sun last year: "I did win, which was incredible and it changed my life, and I truly live by everything happening because it’s supposed to. But I feel like it was a dark time afterwards. I don’t think I was supported, no one checked on me, no one saw if I was OK.
