Speaking to PrideSource last month, Sarah stressed she doesn't want to be attached to any label. "All I can say is, I've done both and I don't let either experience define me," she said. "I don't let having been with a man make me think I am heterosexual, or make me want to call myself that, because I know I have been attracted to women – and have lived with women. "So for me, I'm not looking to define myself, and I'm sorry if that is something that is seen as a rejection of or an unwillingness to embrace (my sexuality) in a public way, but it's simply not. It's simply what's true for me and that's all I can speak to."
