Florida politician Andrew Gillum, opening up six months after entering rehab, came out as bisexual Monday in his first televised interview since he was found in a Miami hotel with a male escort who had seemingly overdosed on crystal meth.
“You didn’t ask the question but I don’t identify as gay,” Gillum, the former Tallahassee mayor, told Tamron Hall in the interview that aired Monday. “I identify as bisexual.”


Gillum made national headlines in March when he was found surrounded by vomit in the Miami hotel room after police responded to calls about a suspected drug overdose.
