I thought, ‘Why am I doing that? What’s the reason that I’m telling myself to do that?’ And as I thought about it, I just realised that none of the reasons that I was coming up with for why I’m going through that acrobatics was good enough for me.” Departing with the Netflix hit Locke & Key, Canadian actor @connorwjessup opens up about coming out, directing and adjusting to life in the fast lane for our Winter 2022/23 issue 🖤 Pre-order the issue now by visiting our #linkinbio Photography by @smiggi Grooming by @beaute_cache89 Styling by @mrmontyjackson Words by @scarlettbaker Editor @ellaxwest
