Gillian Anderson Confirms Pansexual Identity, Reflects on Relationships Across Gender

Gillian Anderson, the 58-year-old X-Files star, says in a new interview she identifies as pansexual and has dated women in the past, noting that her sexuality evolved after hearing other women’s experiences. She recalls a high school relationship with a girl, explains that her life partner happens to be a man, but would feel the same about a partner who was a woman, and ties these insights to her broader work on sexuality (books Want and More) and her Netflix project Sex Education. The piece also outlines her history with exes Clyde Klotz, Julian Ozanne, and Mark Griffiths, and lists her children Piper and Oscar and Felix.
