Woody Cook Opens Up About Sexuality

Woody Cook, the son of Zoe Ball and Fatboy Slim, has opened up about his struggle to define his sexuality.

The 18-year-old model revealed he is bisexual in an interview in US magazine 'Boys By Girls' and told of how his mum reacted to the news.

Woody said the Radio DJ's initial reaction was to say: "You can't be, you like girls?"

"I got her to look back upon her group of friends and she started to realise she knew more bi people then she thought. I think it was a bigger thing in her time," Woody explained.

"Some people assume it's an in-between before you are gay. But really, it's a thing on its own.

"I'm sure a lot of gay and straight people who are in that generation are bi, but have never come out or never even realised it because it wasn't really talked about.

"None of my grandparents know, and they might be finding out after this interview," he added.

The 18-year-old also detailed how he found out he was bisexual three years ago: "I always felt, growing up, that I had all these thoughts and I just shook it off.

"Then one day I was at a party, and there was this girl I really liked who said: 'It's a shame you're not a girl, I'm only really into girls—it's great being gay.'

"And I said: 'Yeah, I'm gay too, I'm bisexual.' I just said it as a laugh at the time, but then the next day I woke up and thought: 'Why did I say that?'

"And then I thought: 'Oh my god, that explains everything!' And then it was that miracle moment, where my entire life had been really conflicted, and I suddenly realised that was it."

He said that he endured negative responses from some, but that those close to him greeted the news.
