Skye Wheatley makes shock confession about her sexuality: 'I could have gone down that path'
Skye Wheatley made a surprising admission about her sexuality on Thursday during the latest episode of her Nova FM podcast Skye & Callum. The influencer, 31, shares sons Forest, five, and Bear, three, with her current long-time partner of eight years Lachlan Waugh. But the former Big Brother star has now confessed she may be 'pansexual' and would have explored that side of herself more if she never started dating Lachlan. Co-host Callum Hole kicked off the conversation by saying: 'So obviously, you've been with Lachie for a while.' 'Yes, eight years, going strong,' she told the former Love Island star, revealing they had their first child together just four months after they started dating.

But I did hear something that if you had more time, then you might have explored your sexuality a little bit more?' he asked. Skye agreed, revealing she learned about pansexuality while watching the Stan reality TV show Love Triangle. 'I didn't know what pansexuality was until watching this show,' she said. 'But basically you are attracted to the person's personality, not what sex they are… you could be attracted to anyone, but you're attracted to their personality.' Callum, 27, clarified: 'So pansexual is basically, you're trying to say, you're not attracted to their sex, you're just attracted to their personality?' 'Yes, their personality and, like, who they are as a person and stuff,' Skye said, before revealing that is how she views her own attraction to people. 'And I'm like, oh yeah, totally. I think that I could go down that path because I definitely see people's personalities before their looks or their sex. 'So I feel like I could maybe explore that, or I could have, not now obviously, but I could have maybe gone down that path.' 'I find it really interesting, because I'm like, yeah, totally... I definitely connect with people's personalities,' she added. The confession comes after Skye and Lachlan, 34, caused confusion in November 2024 when they shared loved-up photos just days after announcing their split. The pair looked very cosy in pictures shared to Instagram, which appeared to be taken during a night out. She wrote cryptically in her caption: 'Can't say we didn't live life.' Skye stunned in the photos as she showed off the results of her recent eye lift surgery while Lachlan kissed her on the cheek. Further photos showed the influencer couple embracing as if nothing was amiss in their romance. The stunner drank a cocktail and posed up a storm, clearly relaxed and back in love with Lachlan despite their recent domestic issues. Just days earlier, Skye confirmed she had separated from her partner. The Gold Coast-based mum-of-two explained the reason Lachlan had not appeared in her recent Q&A videos was because they decided to take time apart. 'Honestly not much to report. We just have a lil re-set break from time to time, it's good,' she told her fans. The former reality star has previously spoken at length about the couple's struggles and admitted they have recently been going to counselling. She said 2024 was all about achieving goals, a journey which included addressing the challenges in her relationship with Lachlan. 'Lachy and I went to a counselling session yesterday,' Skye said. The session, initially intended as occupational therapy for their son Forest, turned into a much-needed intervention for the couple. Skye's realised their son's behaviour could be influenced by their relationship dynamics and it prompted her to take action.

EXCLUSIVE TLC's notorious polyamorous family in turmoil as member of foursome expresses desire to explore her sexuality
A polyamorous family is at risk of being torn apart after one member of the quadruple confessed that her needs aren't being met as a pansexual woman. In TLC's upcoming episode of Polyfamily, Taya Hartless opens up about her sexuality and her desire to explore with another woman. But as it stands, she is unable to meet that need because she is living as a closed quad with her husband of six years, Sean, and fellow married couple Alysia and Tyler Rodgers - and Alysia is straight. In an exclusive preview clip shared with Taya, 28, admits that she wants to start exploring her sexuality as a pansexual woman but is worried about how best to approach the situation. Speaking in her confessional, she says: 'So I consider myself pansexual and Alicia and I have fun together flirting back and forth, but she's straight. The way that our dynamic is and her sexuality, it's just doesn't line up. 'I love my family and I love my life, but I do feel like something is missing and that's a connection with a woman. 'It's the one need that I can't get met within the rules of our quad and it's something that I would like to explore.' Pansexuality is being attracted to people of all genders. TLC reality show Polyfamily follows two married couples, Alysia, 34, and Tyler, 35, and Sean, 46, and Taya. In this unconventional family set up, Tyler is dating Sean's wife, Taya, and Sean is dating Tyler's wife, Alysia. During a boat trip with the rest of the group, Taya attempts to start a conversation about her romantic interest in women. With a drink in hand, she tells them: 'I love girls a lot more when I'm drinking.' It comes after she has a birthday kiss with Sean and Tyler but is left hanging by Alysia. After Sean points out that Alysia robbed Taya of a kiss on her birthday, she then leans in for a peck on the lips. TLC's new reality series Polyfamily arrived last month and lays bare the the two couples' unconventional relationship. The quad moved in together in 2020 and the following year Alysia and Taya delivered children seven months apart. Speaking with Today in 2023, the couple detailed how they had gone from friends to lovers and then moving into a house together. Shortly after meeting, Sean and Taya were making the two-hour commute to see Alysia and Tyler. Growing tired of the long hours spent driving to see each other, they all decided to move into a new house together in 2020 and went from polyamory to 'polyfamory.' Tyler noted that both their children knew their mom 'had a boyfriend' and their dad 'had a girlfriend.' He added that him and Alysia told their kids they should treat Sean and Taya 'like parents.' The quad said then that genetics didn't matter because they are 'all equal parents to all of the children and it's not up for debate or discussion.' The quad lays bare their highs and lows of their relationship in TLC's Polyfamily The Oregon-based family have five children between them and have kept paternity secret And although strangers may question their lifestyle, Tyler noted that having 'four sets of adult hands to work on things' helps tremendously and added that it's 'very rare' to have that 'kind of help.' With four children already and another on the way, the quad is redefining what it means to be a family. Alysia and Tyler have been married for 11 years and came into the quad with two school-aged children of their own. Alysia gave birth to her third child after joining the quad. Meanwhile, Sean and Taya, welcomed her first baby after becoming a quad, and now are preparing to welcome their second child. With five kids in the picture, things do get a little bit complicated. For example, the quad has intentionally chosen not to find out who the father is to avoid jealousy and remain committed and equal parents – which they discover is much easier in theory than in practice. In previous scenes, Alysia has opened up about her family not being accepting of her relationship. 'My relationship with my dad is really strained when he doesn't recognize two of my partners as people that I'm in a relationship with and they're categorized just as friends and not considered to be family,' she said.
