“I’ve never, ever, never been happier than I am now and that’s amazing.” “The important thing about this moment is that you know that no matter who you love, it’s okay and it’s amazing that the world is there for you. I know everyone else’s situation is very different and maybe it’s harder for some to come out of the closet and be themselves. But I think the stigma around coming out is very scary, but things are very different now,” she explained in relief.

“There are a lot of people who are accepting and full of love and that makes everything okay. Of course there will be others who will say it’s not normal. Literally nothing about anyone is normal, but that’s okay. And many people are. It can be scary to be like this and it’s something we should never be afraid of. We should be proud… I feel happier than ever in my entire life and that’s what matters! “, she stated.
