Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Maren Morris reveals she's bisexual in Pride Month post

Caption:

Maren Morris reveals she's bisexual in Pride Month post. The country music star revealed her sexual orientation as she celebrated Pride Month on Instagram on Sunday. She simply wrote… "Happy to be the B in LGBTQ+, Happy pride (rainbow emoji).” Maren, 34, revealed the news alongside snaps from her concert in Phoenix, Arizona on Saturday night. In two of the photos, the My Church hitmaker can be seen waving a Pride flag on stage. Maren filed for divorce from country singer-songwriter Ryan Hurd after five years of marriage in October and their split was finalised in January with the exes sharing custody of their four-year-old son Hayes. The singer has always been an outspoken defender of LGBTQ+ rights. She was honoured for her allyship by GLAAD last year, receiving the organisation's Excellence in Media Award for making a significant difference in promoting acceptance of LGBTQ+ people. She said in her acceptance speech, "I'm not brave... making the right decision shouldn't take bravery or courage.” “It shouldn't take heroic effort to want basic human rights for everybody. Leaving your house knowing that you can face violence, just for being who you are... that is bravery.” "This community stood up for me and made me feel safe when I felt alone and I'll never be able to repay them, but I hope I get to spend the rest of my life and career settling up.” THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
