Overview
- Layla Taylor publicly declared that she is bisexual during an appearance on the On Purpose with Jay Shetty podcast, saying she dates both women and men.
- Taylor used direct language about her orientation, saying “I’m gay and I’m bi and date women and men,” and told Page Six she is currently talking to a woman who reached out to her on Instagram.
- She rose to fame on Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, joining in season one as a newly divorced mother and later becoming an executive producer and a fan favourite on the show.
- Taylor described long-standing uncertainty about how to name her feelings because she grew up in a predominantly white area with few visible queer role models and recalled early moments of attraction while watching shows like Pretty Little Liars.
- She did not inform her castmates before the interview and said she plans to tell them in person, a move that could shape cast relations and broaden public visibility for bisexual Black women from reality television.
