'I Love Being Queer' – Tim McGraw's Daughter Gracie Comes Out for Pride

Gracie McGraw – the daughter of country singers Tim McGraw and Faith Hill – took to Instagram Stories on June 2 in a coming out message that let the world know, "I love being queer."

"McGraw, 28, shared a post from another user on her Instagram story, which read, 'Everyone get more gay now!'" USA Today recounted. "Alongside the pro-LGBTQ graphic, McGraw wrote, 'Happy freaking Pride. I love being queer.'"

While that message is no longer visible on McGraw's Insta, a followup Instagram Stories post on June 3 doubled down, taking note of "click bait" reports from "some tabloids" and confirming that her Pride post was the real deal.

"Let me be VERY clear here," McGraw, an actor and recording artist in her own right, stated. "I've been an out and proud queer, bisexual woman and I wouldn't have it any other way."

"I have and will always be very vocal about my support of LGBTQIA+ rights and the community," McGraw's followup post continued, "but thank you so much to these tabloids for shedding light that it's pride month!!!"

McGraw then went on to let others in the queer community see from her example what Pride month is all about.

"So many people out there don't have the support, love, or understanding from their families when it comes to their sexuality or gender identity," McGraw posted, "but just know that there is a beautiful community out there that loves you and cares about and for you!!"

In another image on Instagram Stories, McGraw shared a meme that repeated over and over, "Pride began as a riot led by Black & Brown trans activists" – a part of queer history worth reiterating, as it is all too often overlooked.
