Of urse, one of the thgs that’s amazg about you guys as a foursome 2022 is that you have two out gay members.
Jaymi And vice-versa, om a gay man’s perspective for you Josh as well, there’s a difference you and JJ now the way the straight men n be so much more open about their feelgs.

’ and I thk I have a role as a straight guy this world to ll out homophobic ments like that. I learned about beg gay om beg 14 and sneakg to gay bars… Gee didn’t have that opportuny so I thought was very important to give him a groundg space to learn about himself and fd who he is whout the prsure.
I went out last night wh iends, I was at a gay bar…’ and I was like ‘How is this nversatn [still happeng]?! ’ I was given such a safe space by the media to do : I didn’t want to do the whole whe t-shirt on the ont of The Sun wh the sad-lookg face, ‘My trma of beg a gay man’ like so many other gay boyband members had to do.

But hold on a mute, like you said, the ntradictn om two years ago, you’ve jt done this [piece] wh me, Rylan, Christopher Maloney, Lucy Spraggan, Ja Ellis; six or seven of the whole st of The X Factor were gay, but yet you want to pick on this one boy to make him outed. Jt gog to the band, one of the first thgs that was said to me [by management] was ‘You’re not gay are you?
Josh: I remember gog to our management offic and I remember the nversatn about how I was a ser relatnship wh Chloe and was gog to get engaged and married; Jamie was obvly gay, Gee [was] gay, and JJ had a baby, and I remember the sort of vibe of the meetg was ‘Look, this isn’t what boybands do’.
