Indy Yelich-O’Connor, known best as Lorde’s little sister, coyly came out as bisexual yesterday afternoon.

On Tuesday, the teenager took to social media with an announcement. “plot twist (I like boys and girls)” she tweeted. 

The New Zealander currently resides in New York City, and has taken to writing, much like her singer-songwriter sister and her mother, the award-winning poet Sonja Yelich. Indy released Sticky Notes, her first book of poetry back in February. According to the official description, the debut collection “chronicles her experiences with love, travel, and self-discovery in a shifting physical and emotional geography.”

“Today was so amazing,” the Kiwi wrote on Twitter last night. “I had so many messages of support & the sun was shining, and I just love New York. So grateful for my life and all the people in it. And I can’t wait for my book tour.”

The poet will embark on a book tour soon to promote Sticky Notes.
