I went on a work trip – and realised I’m bisexual

Growing up, I thought there were two options: straight or lesbian (Picture: Taylor Palmer)

‘I already know,’ my husband said with a smile.

My nerves melted away instantly in the warm glow of his acceptance after I told him I was bisexual five years into our marriage.

A big coming out was never in my plans, yet the moment I understood that I was bisexual, at 28, I told the person I trusted the most, not knowing he was already fully aware.

But that realisation didn’t happen overnight – the pieces started to come together on my first visit to Europe. Three years before that fateful conversation.
