As we’ve previously reported, people from all over the world have been coming out following the tragic mass shooting in Orlando over the weekend.
Child star Mara Wilson is one of the latest to open up about her sexuality.
On Sunday, the Matilda actress took to Twitter to share her experience of going to a gay club at 18, where she says she felt “welcomed.” And it was the very next day that the 28-year-old publicly shared she no longer identifies as “mostly straight.”

.@__SonjaLouise__ I said I *used* to identify as mostly straight. I’ve embraced the Bi/Queer label lately

Yes, girl!
She also shared that on the Kinsey Scale, she would identify her sexuality as a 2, which is known as “predominantly heterosexual, but more than incidentally homosexual.”
Let me put it this way: I’m a 2. https://t.co/VA98ZK0a37

And the actress continued:
Your support is much appreciated. I will say, though, I’m still gonna be pretty private about my relationships, as I always have been.

She’s got our support!

Me at a gay club when I was eighteen. I feel embarrassed looking at it now… pic.twitter.com/qMZec3WBvu

Being a “straight girl” where I clearly didn’t belong, but I will say, I felt so welcomed there.

I have never had a better experience at a club than I did then. Great music and people. And one of my friends met his partner that night!

I haven’t been to one since college, except once when a friend brought me along. I didn’t feel like I belonged there.

But the LGBTQ community has always felt like home, especially a few years later when I, uh, learned something about myself.

So thank you.
