AEW Star Diamanté recently appeared on the company’s Unrestricted podcast to speak about a variety of topics such as how she is a very private and reserved person as well as how prior to her relationship with Kiera Hogan she was never comfortable with her sexuality.
Diamanté said:
“I’m not gonna lie, it was all very new for me because I’m used to keeping everything on the inside, I don’t let my personal life out there. I’m very private and reserved. Before Kiera, I was never comfortable with my sexuality because you know, it’s wrestling… I don’t want to weird people out, I don’t know how everybody’s gonna feel, but that’s just me living in my own head, you know what I’m saying?”
Diamanté also spoke about how Kiera Hogan actually gave her a lot of confidence and how she and Kiera gave each other the confidence that they didn't have to just be themselves with their relationship.
Diamanté said:
“Kiera actually gave me a lot of confidence, I think we gave each other that confidence that we didn’t have to be out and just be ourselves with our relationship. It was very very different for me because like I said, I was used to just keeping to myself. Getting with her and seeing how happy I was, [it] didn’t deserve to be hidden or kept behind closed doors. This deserves for people to see it and maybe be inspired. It was crazy because she announced it online and it kind of broke the internet, there was like news articles about it and i was like ‘Woah okay, this is impactful, this is probably gonna make change, negative or positive it’s gonna make a change’ and it’s just cool to be [part of the change].”
Diamanté then spoke about how it feels really nice to have the support of their friends and coworkers and how it was life changing.
Diamanté said:
“It’s really, really cool. It’s a relief to be honest with you, it feels nice to just be supported and to be myself and ourselves around our friends and coworkers. It was life changing, for sure.”
