“Sometimes people say, ‘You’ve only publicly been with women,’ and I don’t think I’ve publicly been with anyone. If someone takes a picture of you with someone, it doesn’t mean you’re choosing to have a public relationship or something,” Harry told Rolling Stone. Queerbaiting is “profiting off queer aesthetics without explicitly claiming the community.”
“I’ve never talked about my life away from work publicly and found that it’s benefited me positively,” he added. “There’s always going to be a version of a narrative, and I think I just decided I wasn’t going to spend the time trying to correct it or redirect it in some way.”
He also spoke about his starring role in the upcoming gay drama My Policeman.
“It’s obviously pretty unfathomable now to think, ‘Oh, you couldn’t be gay. That was illegal,’” he added. “I think everyone, including myself, has your own journey with figuring out sexuality and getting more comfortable with it. It’s not like ‘This is a gay story about these guys being gay.’ It’s about love and about wasted time to me.”
Harry previously spoke about his sexuality and not wanting to put a label on himself.
