After speculation, Lucas Souza, Jojo Todynho’s ex-husband, reveals that he is bisexual: ‘Free and happy’

Digital influencer Lucas Souza, 23, published an open letter this Saturday afternoon (27) in which he reveals that he is bisexual. “Today is a very important day for me, as I feel free and happy,” he said.

Also an actor and presenter, Lucas became famous when he married funk singer Jojo Todynho, in 2022. The relationship, however, ended in less than a year. When talking about what would have motivated the end, the singer even reported having found message exchanges between him and other men.

Lucas said he considers himself a bisexual person, but also considers the possibility of being pansexual (when the gender and sex of the partner are not decisive for the person). “Actually, I don’t even know yet,” he commented.

“I am in the process of self-knowledge, and I should experience it in my heart, however, with so many comments and with this pressure that I am feeling, I decided to make this public and share my doubts and uncertainties with you”, he stated.

Last year, Lucas participated in A Fazenda 15, on Record. During and after confinement, he became involved with ex-BBB Jaquelline Grohalski, winner of the edition. “During my participation in the reality show, sexuality became an issue in many moments and it consumed me internally”, he said. “I had to suffer all the prejudices again in silence and silence, because my feelings, anguish and confusion held me back.”

Regarding why he didn’t make his sexual orientation public earlier, he explained that the matter was still “very unresolved within him.” “At that moment I needed, first of all, to understand my feelings, to know why it made me so afraid.”

Now, he says he is ready to talk about the subject. “I’ve been thinking about making this public for a long time, to feel more comfortable, take this weight off my shoulders and be able to live without being threatened, without people doubting my character,” he reported.

CHECK OUT THE FULL OPEN LETTER FROM LUCAS SOUZA

So, let’s go, guys! Firstly, I want to explain to you why I am making this decision!
My whole life has always been guided by COURAGE. The needs and difficulties I have experienced in life have made me very courageous from an early age.
Courage to assume the role of a man at home;
Courage to face poverty and divide studies with work from an early age, thus sacrificing my childhood and adolescence. Courage to face an environment full of rules and responsibilities like the Army.
I also had the courage to leave my life exposed on the internet, and still deal with comments related to my sexuality. For me, this was a problem for a long time. The point is that this issue became a problem because it was very unresolved within me, and my process of SELF-ACCEPTANCE and discovery was happening along with all the exposure of my life.
Sexuality for some is something very simple, self-acceptance for others too, but that wasn’t the case for me. My process was different, perhaps due to the mentality with which I was raised, that the fact that I wanted to get involved with both genders, male and female, would be something wrong.
That’s exactly what you read: I consider myself a BISEXUAL or even PANSEXUAL person. In fact, I don’t even know yet. I am in the process of self-discovery, and I should experience it in my heart, however, with so many comments and the pressure I am feeling, I decided to make this public and share my doubts and uncertainties with you.
Maybe this wouldn’t be the best time, but I need to take off this WEIGHT that afflicts and suffocates me!
During my participation in the reality show, sexuality became an issue on many occasions and it consumed me internally. And here the doubt may arise because I didn’t say anything at that moment.
And I explain: at that moment I needed, first of all, to understand my feelings, to know why it made me so afraid. So, I was brave again and faced what bothered me most. I had to suffer all the prejudices again QUIET AND QUIET, because my feelings, anguish and confusion stopped me!
During confinement, I fell in love with a woman, which is normal for bi/pansexualism. This incredible woman respected me at all times and became my friend as well as girlfriend, and she accepted me exactly the way I am. I started to create plans with her, but again this pressure of sexuality came and the nasty comments returned, only here on the outside, here in real life.
You may wonder why I didn’t make this public after I came out and saw all the support I received from people!
I clarify that, when I left, I was sure of what my life would be like out here and what my position would be like on this, however, realizing the accusations, I became even more confused. Become trapped again, unable to speak.
However, I’ve been thinking about making this public for a long time, to feel more comfortable, take this weight off my shoulders and be able to live without being threatened, without people doubting my character.
Anyway, today is a very important day for me, because I feel free and happy!
I hope this report makes people aware that everyone has their own moment, each person goes through a process and the ideal time to talk about it is up to each individual, in a personal and non-transferable way.
And that all of us, regardless of race, color, gender or sexual orientation, deserve RESPECT!
