David Walliams admits ‘I’m probably non-binary’ as he opens up on sexuality after years of ‘gay’ claims

David Walliams has revealed he would “probably” identify as non-binary if he were younger today, during a candid interview released today.

The former Britain’s Got Talent judge, 57, made the admission while speaking on the Uncomfortable Conversations with Josh Szeps podcast.

“I think in a way I’d probably say I’m non-binary, I think. Probably. I don’t know exactly,” the comedian shared when asked how he might identify if he were a university student today.

The Little Britain star also suggested that his life “might have been easier” if he were gay.

During his university years at Bristol, where he studied drama, Walliams frequented gay clubs with his then-girlfriend.

“I used to go out to gay clubs and dance for like six hours and I’d be wearing a skirt and stuff like that,” he recalled.

When asked about his past description as “Britain’s most famous bi-curious comedian” and whether he had experimented with men, Walliams responded: “Yeah, I’d say so.”

He added: “But again, it almost feels strange because these things were such a big deal to talk about back then.”

Speaking about his connection to gay culture, Walliams expressed a strong affinity with it.

“Sometimes I think my life would’ve been easier if I were just gay. I’m really drawn to gay things. I love gay culture,” he said.

The comedian compared himself to his BBC co-star Matt Lucas, noting an interesting contrast.

“It’s funny because Matt Lucas is gay, and he’s into football and musicals too… but yeah, I’d say I’m probably more camp than him,” Walliams reflected.

He suggested sexuality exists on a spectrum, adding: “I think probably most – not everybody – but a lot of people probably are somewhere on the kind of spectrum, aren’t they?”

Walliams reflected on how attitudes towards gender identity have evolved over the past decade.

“I think it’s interesting. I find change interesting,” he said during the podcast.

The author pointed to his own contribution to discussions around gender expression through his literary work.

“I wrote a book called ‘The Boy in the Dress’ 15 years ago, which was sort of seen as a bit more daring then,” he explained.

“It’s always something – I’ve always sort of felt like celebrating difference on, so I’ve always thought it’s exciting.”

The comedian suggested drama students today might be particularly drawn to exploring gender identity.
