Liam Cooper was outed as bisexual on national TV
About this episode
Almost everyone in Liam Cooper's life found out he was bisexual when he was outed on Married At First Sight Australia. Liam was open to producers about being bisexual before appearing on the show, but he expected to come out on his own terms, not forced to come out at his own wedding ceremony to his brand new wife Georgia. Since leaving the show, Liam has started a relationship with fellow MAFS contestant Samuel Levi and now he cops criticism that he's "been gay all along" from people who don't believe in bisexuality. In this episode, Liam shares with host Sean Szeps about the relief of discovering bisexuality in his early 20's, why he didn't tell anyone he was bisexual before going on MAFS (and how they reacted when they found out) and the stigma towards bisexual men vs bisexual women.
