While everyone seems to be obsessed with Jack Vidgen’s dramatic physical transformation, the talented singer is talking about a very personal matter of the heart.
The 22-year-old – who is set to appear on The Voice this season – publicly came out as gay earlier this week, and now he has elaborated further on what it was like to reveal his sexuality to his loved ones.
‘I came out a couple of years ago,’ the Australia’s Got Talent winner told The Kyle and Jackie O show this morning.
‘I got to that point where I was happy and accepting who I am and wanted to be able to share that.
‘I was really fortunate, so many people have less fortunate situations. Everyone was so chill in my life, it just wasn’t a thing, which I think is the best way for it to be.’
Although Jack is thankful that his family were fully accepting of the news, he admits he struggled with his sexuality for a long time before finally coming out.
‘When I was 14 in the public eye… you get those thoughts, “Am I gay? Am I not?” You’re still working it out and I was still going through puberty,’ he admitted.
‘So yeah I just had to have that time to figure it out. I don’t think it was a particular point, it was a journey.’
