Logie-winning actor Hugh Sheridan has come out in an Instagram post as non-binary, but says they are "human" and prefers not to have a label.
The Australian actor made the comments to promote a front cover shoot for gay men's magazine DNA, featuring the 35-year-old and their fiance Kurt Roberts.
"I AM still a human (non binary/bi/me/Hughman) but I’m in a monogamous relationship with another human, who I love," the actor wrote, adding that they "don’t accept a label 'cause it limits me".
Sheridan, best known for their role on the Australian series Packed to the Rafters, spoke publicly about their sexuality last year in Stellar Magazine, saying they had been in relationships with both men and women.
The Adelaide-born actor, who is currently based in Los Angeles, told Stellar Magazine they felt a responsibility to speak out about their gender.
"In many ways, I wish I didn’t have to write this, but I feel a responsibility to others who may come after me," they said.
"By sharing my story now, and becoming more transparent, maybe I can help to give others who are private a break. We might live and let them live as they wish."
The actor has avoided being associated with labels, saying they "are for clothes, not for people."
"Why chose?!!" the actor wrote on Instagram.
"Be you. Be true. Be free: to BE, to JUST BE… you, a human, same as me."
