“I am in a mixed relationship. I get comments, looks, and things all the time. It’s very interesting to see the diversity of opinions and perspectives that people have on social media. And it’s not easy to make that choice, because you’re not at home in any home. I’m never going to be white and I’m never going to be fully supported in the Black house. So I’m in my own little world with support from almost no one, to be in love with someone I’ve fallen in love with. That makes sense. It doesn’t.”

But at the end of the day, if that’s the view they take, then that’s the view they take. I can’t change their mind. I can only live my life and try to be the best version possible. And continue to love everybody equally, and let it fall where it falls.”
