Riverdale's Vanessa Morgan Loves Playing a Bisexual Character on Television
Vanessa Morgan is all smiles while attending the Sunglass Hut Summer Solstice Soiree at the Hotel Americano in New York City on Thursday (June 21).
The 26-year-old Riverdale actress recently opened up about playing a bisexual character on television, something that she’s extremely grateful for.
“I don’t think it’s represented as much as it should be in the media, so I love being able to represent that love is love,” Vanessa shared.
Vanessa also played a bisexual character, Lyria, on The Shannara Chronicles.
She adds, “I personally believe that you fall in love with a person’s soul regardless of their gender. I love people coming up to me and saying, ‘Because of them I was able to come out to my family,’ because I didn’t have that growing up.”
“I didn’t have somebody that I could relate to being biracial. So I love that people can now see that and have somebody that they’re like, ‘Oh, that’s like me.’”
