Actor Chloë Grace Moretz came out as a gay in an Instagram post on Friday that also served as an endorsement for Vice President Kamala Harris.
“I voted early and I voted for Kamala Harris,” Moretz wrote in the caption of an Instagram post showcasing an “I voted early 2024” sticker on her jeans.
“There is so much on the line this election. I believe the government has no right over my body as a woman, and that the decisions over my body should come ONLY from myself and my doctor,” Moretz wrote, adding, “Kamala Harris will protect that for us.”
Moretz, 27, then said that “as a gay woman,” she believes in the need for legal protections for the LGBTQ community.
“We need protections in this country and to have access to the care we need and deserve,” Moretz said before asking her followers if they are voting early.She also encouraged followers to make a plan to go to their polling places with friends.
Moretz, who used to date Brooklyn Beckham, has been linked to model Kate Harrison for about five years. The pair often shares photos of themselves together on social media.
In 2018, Moretz played a gay teen who was sent to a conversion therapy camp against her will in the movie “The Miseducation of Cameron Post.”
During promotion for that movie, she told Deadline she has been an “activist for the LGBT community since I was a little girl, having two gay brothers in my family.”
During the same press tour, Moretz was clearly irritated when a reporter from The Independent told her that her name was included in an article about straight actors playing gay characters.
“Oh really?” Moretz told The Independent at the time. “Well I think what’s important is don’t assume anyone’s sexuality. I mean, across the board, don’t assume.”
She continued: “We’re all human, trying to be with the people that we fall in love with, and be the best person that we can be. But don’t assume people’s sexualities. And don’t project your own issues onto them. Why don’t we let people be who they wanna be?”
