In Love: How are LGBTQ+ couples treated differently in the public eye?

Famously...

Available for over a year

Celebrity relationships are constantly reported on in the press, but the way that LGBTQ+ stories are talked about is very different to how straight ones are discussed. Jack and Sarel look at queer history in the UK and in Hollywood and discuss topics such as queerbaiting, forced outings and conforming to heterosexual models. To help them, they discuss celebrities like George Michael, Chrishell Stause, Troye Sivan and Billie Eilish.
