Out and proud. Bachelor Nation‘s Elizabeth Corrigan came out as bisexual while celebrating Pride in New York City.
“It’s hard to know the right way to say these things, or the right time. Today seems like both and neither,” the real estate advisor, 33, wrote via Instagram on Sunday, June 26, alongside a photo of herself wearing a rainbow tube top. “Waking up this morning to my first Pride in NYC I was so excited. I sprung out of bed, went to get a coffee — bought a flag — and quickly began feeling anxious. Overwhelmingly so. Am I ready? No. Am I scared? Yes. Will ‘the right time’ come? Qualify it.”
She continued: “It’s important to me today to share with you all that I am queer. More specifically I am, always have been, and always will be-bisexual.”
While Elizabeth has been open about her sexuality with the people she is close to, she has avoided coming out publicly out of fear others will look at her differently. However, the reality TV personality has come to the realization that “what’s more important to me at the end of the day — is to be me. Authentic. Genuine. Raw.”
Elizabeth concluded her post by explaining that she hoped that her coming out would make at least “one person will feel less alone. If you’re that one. I’ve got you.” She added: “You are NOT alone. Hoping that one day the fear will turn to what it should be … PRIDE. Only love. All love. Today and each day to come.”
In a follow-up post, the Colorado native thanked fellow Bachelor Nation member Olivia Caridi for her support ahead of the decision to publicly come out: “Your support, encouragement and friendship has been a light in my life and I am so lucky to have you as an ally and a friend,” Elizabeth wrote. “Love you, liv. ❤️
