Billie Eilish Expresses Regret After Opening Up About Her Sexuality

Billie Eilish has expressed her regret over publicly discussing her sexuality and dating life. She stated, "I wish no one knew anything about my sexuality or anything about my dating life. Ever, ever, ever."

This sentiment reflects her frustration with how her personal disclosures have been magnified by the media.

Despite her candidness in past interviews, Eilish now vows to keep her personal life private, stating, "I’m never talking about my sexuality ever again. And I’m never talking about who I’m dating again."

This decision comes amidst her reflections on the impact of fame on her mental health and personal safety. Eilish has spoken about the anxiety and paranoia that accompany her celebrity status, as well as the depression she has battled throughout her life.
