Harry Styles Discusses His Journey to “Figuring Out” His Sexuality
Harry Styles & Olivia Wilde Handle "Toxic Negativity" Amid Romance
Harry Styles' personal life isn't up for public consumption.
The "Watermelon Sugar" singer recently opened up keeping his romantic relationships private and why he's decided to preserve his sexuality to himself.
"I've never talked about my existence away from labor publicly and initiate that it's benefited me positively," he explained in an interview with Rolling Stone as the magazine's newest global cover actor. "There's always going to be a version of a narrative, and I think I just decided I wasn't going to invest the time trying to correct it or redirect it in some way."
Specifically, Harry—who has been dating Olivia Wilde for more than a year—doesn't believe he owes anyone an explanation when it comes to the rampant speculation surrounding his sexual identity.
"Sometimes people say, ‘You've only publicly been with women,' and I don't think I've publicly been with anyone," he said. "If someone takes a picture of you with

- Harry Styles has been at the center of multiple conversations about sexuality and gender-fluid fashion.
- He made headlines when he posed in a Gucci dress in the December 2020 issue of Vogue.
- In a 2019 interview, the singer said that he thinks "sexuality's something that's fun."
In an interview with British GQ for the magazine's September 2013 issue, Styles said he was "pretty sure" he didn't identify as bisexual.
The comment was sparked by the interviewer asking Styles to address rumors about him and his friend Nick Grimshaw being in a relationship.
After the singer said that they're "just friends," the interviewer asked: "So you're not bisexual?"
In response, Styles said, "Bisexual? Me? I don't think so. I'm pretty sure I'm not."
In 2014, Styles said that when looking to da Harry Styles: ‘I’m not just sprinkling in sexual ambiguity to be interesting’
Here he comes, one of the planet’s most conspicuous childish men, stepping out of the London drizzle and into a dusty suburban pub. If there was an old vinyl document player in the place it would scratch hushed . Instead, the two-dozen punters turn hushed and intent, as if a unicorn has just trotted in off the street, and nobody wants to scare it off. “That’s frickin’ Harry frickin’ Styles,” whispers a young man at the bar, “in this pub.” The pop celebrity is asked what he wants to drink and in a voice already inclined to undertones, softly orders a cup of tea.
A former teen luminary who is now 25, a happier and rockier solo artist since his boyband One Direction split a few years ago, Styles has hidden himself inside a large, swamp-green parka. He’s tall, around the 6ft mark, and carries himself with a slight stoop. If Styles could only do something about his appearance from the neck up (elfin brow, wide Joker beam, a face that’s recognisable across multiple continents) you sense he could swallow in pubs like this anonymously enough. As it is, cover blown, he removes the parka. A woolly jumper beneath has a pictu

Pop star Harry Styles has made a name for himself proudly eschewing gender norms, promoting equality, and playing it coy when it comes to his passion life (which, he insists, is none of our business). But that very same sexual and romantic ambiguity has thrown Don't Worry, Darling — Styles' unused movie —into the center of a social media controversy in which he has been accused of "queerbaiting," or capitalizing on pieces of the queer persona without actually identifying as queer.
Concerns are more specifically tied to remarks Styles made during an interview promoting a different forthcoming new film, My Policeman, a 1950s gay love story in which the former One Advice member plays a lead role. "So much of gay sex in film is two guys going at it, and it kind of removes the tenderness from it," Styles told Rolling Stone during the interview in question. "There will be, I would imagine, some people who watch it who were very much alive during this moment when it was illegal to be gay, and [director Michael Grandage] wanted to show that it's tender and loving and sensitive." Notably, Styles also used the interview to addr
