Lib Dem MP Layla Moran has come out as pansexual.
The Oxford West and Abingdon MP is considered to be a likely party leadership contender after Jo Swinson stepped down after the shocking defeat in the general election in December.
Taking to Twitter, Moran posted an image of her partner and revealed she ‘never even considered’ she would ever have a relationship with a woman.
She wrote: “2020 is a new decade and a new path in my journey.
“Last year I fell in love with a wonderful woman. Something I’d never even considered before. Now I am just happy #Pansexual #OutAndProud”
